The TJ Podcast Training Journal

Joanne Lockwood believes that the world isn’t just black and white but rather a multitude of perspectives that all have value and by taking a narrow view of our world we miss so much.

In this interview she tells of her own identity journey to become a transgender woman, the reconciliation of family to this change, her new business and why diversity and inclusion is vital to organisations, communities, and families and why we must all be advocates of those seeking to ‘belong’.

Welcome to the TJ Podcast: May 2022

Looking to the future: what does 2022 hold for organisations, their leaders and people?

Questions under discussion:

What do these changes mean to organisations and their people and how are we changing the way we manage people and processes as a result?

What skills will we need in this need 21st century workplace and how do we ensure people are engaged in a fast-paced learning journey as skills are likely to continue to change at speed?

What role will technology play in this new environment and how confident are L&D professionals in meeting these new demands for skills and managing a range of complex learning tools?
