In our first season, we introduced our thesis: the need for a radically new approach to Workplace Learning in the face of all the disruption and change coming so fast at us.
Season Two: Radical Experiments
In season two, we meet an inspiring and eclectic mix of leading edge practitioners and technology vendors from companies such as Visa, Airbnb, Degreed, Axonify, and LinkedIn. What unifies these individuals: their quest to make the workplace better and move our discipline forward.

In Season Three we meet practitioners who are drawing on science based practices to move the L&D profession forward.

This week, we've turned to another Life Sciences organisation that's made Purpose a central driver of activity and its training approach: @sanofi. Could its work have lessons for you and your #learning team?
