Working in L&D, we spend a lot of time focusing on the development of others. But how much time do we spend thinking about our own development?

This week on the Good Practice Podcast, Ross Garner and Owen Ferguson are joined by Lightbulb Moment's Jo Cook to discuss: 

• the benefits of formal training for L&D professionals
• the value of experience over expertise
• how people working in L&D can support each other.
