“I have the confidence now...to be extremely immediate in my decision-making, as long as I map my decisions to our values.”- Glen Blair

How has the pandemic affected you and your organization?   Everyone has been touched in some way or another, and much of the impact has been negative.  It’s also had an interesting flip side - a more positive impact, in many cases.  Today’s guest credits the pandemic as a sort of catalyst that has elevated his skills and outlook in important ways. 

My guest is Glen Blair who is currently Senior Manager, Learning Design & Technology Operations at the Home Depot Canada - an organization with over 32,000 associates across the country.

Glen has a wealth of experience supporting and leading learning across several diverse industries, including healthcare, telecom and retail.  

In this episode of Talent Management Truths, you’ll discover:

🍏  How encountering resistance can lead to watershed moments

🍏  Which leadership skills grew the most as a result of Covid 

🍏  The impact of empowerment on engagement

About Glen Blair:  Glen has been in the learning and development field for over 25 years across the telecommunications, public health sector, financial and retail industries.  Glen is the thought leader for the learning design and operations functions at the Home Depot Canada, with a focus on the continuous evolution of people-centric, innovative technology solutions supporting over 30K associates nation-wide.
