Previous Episode: 84: How NOT to LinkedIn with Tim Slade
Next Episode: 86: Kona (and AI) for Coaching Managers with Yen Tan
In this episode, I talk about how I moved from an individual contributor role as an instructional designer to an L&D leadership role and give you tips if you're interested in doing the same.
I talk about how to break it to your manager, how to create a plan to upskill, weighing the risks of staying at your current organization or trying to branch out to a new one, and how to get people leadership experience outside your full-time day job.
Thanks for listening to the BLOC!
