Welcome to this capability-focused episode of the Learning Reinvented podcast, brought to you by The Learning Effect team.

In this episode, James and Katie explore how learning teams can cut through the noise and focus on what truly matters — enabling capability, not just delivering training. They unpack the difference between skills and capabilities, discuss how to stay relevant in a constantly shifting environment, and challenge the traditional assumptions about learning’s role in the organisation.

Whether you’re leading an L&D team or working to align learning with business impact, this episode is full of practical insight and honest reflections.

The Learning Reinvented Podcast aims to bring a variety of new and different voices to talk about the current and future state of learning at work. We want our conversations to be thought-provoking, useful and real-world. We appreciate your thoughts and feedback to help achieve this.
