The Learning Culture Podcast

Joining me this week is Jen Collins.Jen is the Director of Academy Enablement at Learn In, a talent academy platform that was recently acquired by Degreed, one of the largest players in the ed tech space.Jen and I connected on LinkedIn a while back, kept in touch through the platform, and found a common passion for all things continuous learning.In this "Rapid Fire 5" segment, I gather her first thoughts on five key questions related to learning and enablement. 

Joining me this week is Raquel Ferrari.Raquel is the Revenue Enablement Manager at Spekit. She is an enabler, but in a good way!She is also in a unique role in that she leads enablement for a company that serves people in enablement. And that made for a very interesting episode. We explored the benefits that she brings to her go-to-market team - from reps to customer success and everything in between.In this episode, we talk about all things Just-in-Time Learning. It was really fun to pull out a framework that Raquel uses for deciding how to create content and communicate with her sales team. She ended up sharing a three step framework (which I think you'll find incredibly useful) that we spent the bulk of this episode unpacking.So with that, please sit back, relax, and enjoy my episode with Raquel Ferrari.

 Joining me this week was Kristen McCrae McMullan. Kristen is the Global Enablement Leader for Amazon Web Services ProServe. She first appeared on my radar at the beginning of this year when she released a three-part "new year's resolution" series on topics that were top-of-mind for her in enablement. The first part of that series was a topic called “Micro-KPIs” - and it's something that I have not been able to stop thinking about since I read it. I found myself explaining it to others as if it were my own idea.For the uninitiated among us, micro-KPIs are a potential solution for measuring and showing the impact of enablement efforts. We explore all things micro-KPI in terms of how to set them up, what some of the top challenges people face are, and what Kristen’s go-to micro-KPIs are. We also break down for you a very simple step-by-step approach so that you can go and set up your own KPIs right now. Please sit back, relax and enjoy my episode with Kristen McCrae McMullan.
