From Classroom to Boardroom: What We Forgot About Learning

Thursday 30 April 2026
LT Seminar Theatre 4
LT Exhibition

Discover what workplace learning can learn from the primary classroom. In this session, a former primary school teacher turned People Development trainer explores why the way we teach children is often more effective than how we train adults.

Blending real classroom stories with practical insight, this talk challenges the way we often approach workplace learning. It explores why so much training still relies on content-heavy sessions and what happens when we shift the focus to participation, practice, and creating space for people to try, get things wrong, and learn from it.

You’ll leave with a fresh perspective on how learning really works, and a few simple ideas to take away. More than anything, this session aims to challenge how we think about learning at work and what we might have forgotten along the way.

  • Rethink what effective learning looks like
  • Apply practical strategies to improve engagement
  • Use technology to enable learning, not just deliver content
