At TJ’s 60th Anniversary Conference, Andrew Jacobs discusses with Laura Overton and Kirsty Lewis what L&D has gained and lost over six decades. The exploration goes from laserdiscs to AI, classrooms to communities, and why social, human learning still matters more than ever for performance, culture, connection and future readiness.Links from the podcast:Podcast learning festivalSpeakers:Andrew JacobsKirsty LewisLaura Overton
Jo Cook, Josh Bersin, and Erica Farmer explore how AI is shifting L&D from static courses to dynamic, personalised support, featuring real examples, AI coaching, smarter content curation, and a sharper focus on business impact.Links from the podcastTJ's 60th anniversary conferenceThanks to TechSmith for providing Camtasia and Audiate for editingGuestsErica FarmerJosh BersinLaura Overton
In this episode, we explore the subtle (and not-so-subtle)differences between teaching, training, and facilitation—and why they matter more than you might think. From accidental facilitators to seasoned pros, our guests share honest reflections, practical approaches, and cautionary talesabout what makes learning stick. We dive into the skills that set great facilitators apart, the common mistakes that derail engagement and impact, and why designing for learning transfer is non-negotiable. Whether you're delivering in person or online, this is a conversation packed with insight,energy, and plenty of reminders that good delivery is about more than just good slides.Links from the podcast:Will Thalheimer’s research paper “Does eLearning Work?”SOFest – School of Facilitation learning festival in June 2025Kirsty’s SOFest blogsHR Unconference from Fiona McBrideFacilitation Shindigs from Julie DrybroughThanks to TechSmith for providing Camtasia and Audiate for editingGuestsKirsty LewisColin SmithMelanie MartinelliErica FarmerTina SethAndy McConvilleJo CookIf you have something new to share with the L&D community and would like to be part of TJ’s podcasts.
