VIRTUAL CHAPTER LEARNING EVENT
January 15th

 Event Details

Become a Business Acumen Superstar!

Session Overview: 

Want to stand out in today’s fast-changing L&D landscape? It’s not just about creating great learning. It’s about understanding the business behind the learning. Business acumen is the skill that sets top-performing L&D pros apart. But here’s the problem: most professionals don’t know what they actually need to learn and what they don’t.

This session will provide clarity on both fronts. You’ll break down business acumen into five clear categories and discover exactly what kind of business knowledge matters most for L&D. No fluff, no finance degree required. You’ll uncover where to find key information inside your organization and create a personalized plan to grow your business acumen over time. If you're ready to stop guessing, start growing, and become the kind of L&D pro who brings real strategic value, this session is for you.

Speaker: Jess Almie, Strategic L&TD Consultant

Jess Almlie is an award-winning Learning and Talent Development strategist and former Vice President of Learning who helps organizations shift L&D from transactional order taking to strategic business partnership.

Jess is the author of L&D Order Taker No More! and host of the L&D Must Change podcast.
