CANBERRA, Australia - AussieJournal -- Earlier this year, Pursuit Technology jumped headfirst into the strategic L&D movement with the launch of Acorn Labs, a space on the web for the latest research and findings from industry leading learning professionals. A new part of Acorn Labs launched just this week – The Strategic L&D Podcast. Hosted by Pursuit's Managing Director and Co-Founder Blake Proberts, The Strategic L&D podcast delves into what key L&D opinion leaders are doing today to ensure they deliver a strategically impactful L&D function.

The Strategic L&D podcast covers a wide array of content areas including aligning learning strategy to business strategy, what learning strategies best remedy identified organisation under-performance, how to execute on leading practices in L&D strategy and how to ensure L&D is seen as a strategic partner to the business.

Pursuit launched The Strategic L&D Podcast as a way for L&D practitioners to have a space that's focused on learning how to drive further maturity in their L&D strategies from peers. The podcast is a perfect fit for Pursuit's company focus to help HR, L&D and WFP leaders use data to prove their strategic impact, a rather difficult feat.
