L1S1 - Women in Learning
Wednesday 29 April 2026
Executive Club
LT Conference
The learning and development field has been shaped by the work of women at every level, from frontline practitioners to senior leaders. Women play a central role in the learning profession, yet their contributions, leadership journeys and influence are often under - represented and recognised.
As organisations navigate rapid change, the insights and leadership of women in the profession are increasingly critical to building effective learning cultures and driving meaningful impact.
This session explores the evolving role of women in learning and development, highlighting the experiences, achievements and perspectives shaping the profession today and into the future.
Women in Learning: Leadership, Influence, and the Future of the Profession - Catherine McGaw-Pratt, Mark Gash & Sharon Kaliouby
Beyond personal stories, the session will offer networking opportunities, along with practical perspectives on how organisations can better support talent, create inclusive environments, and ensure that diverse voices shape the future of the profession.
Attendees will leave with a wider network and concrete ideas for developing allyship, mentoring, and impact across their own teams and organisations
