Improving Employee Experience through Learning, Skill Development and Mobility

In this episode of the podcast, my guest is Kat Kennedy, the Chief Experience Officer of Degreed, where she has overall responsibility for product and technology. Kat was employee number three at Degreed and since she joined in 2012, the company has enjoyed phenomenal growth and created an entire new category in the HR technology market with its learning experience platform or LXP. As Kat outlines in our conversation, Covid-19 has accentuated the importance of re-skilling, up-skilling and learning.

In our conversation Kat and I discuss:

The challenges in running a fast growing HR Tech company
Creating the new LXP category and being a female leader in tech
Why it is crucial to use data and analytics in learning and development
How learning, careers and mobility are all coming together into one personalised platform, AKA the talent marketplac
What we can learn from organisations who are combining learning, analytics and skills togetherwe
The future direction of the learning and development field

This episode is a must listen for anyone interested or involved in learning skills and the technology that supports it. So that is Business Leaders, CHROs, Chief Learning Officers and anyone in a People Analytics, Learning, Workforce Planning or HR Business Partner role.
