🎙️ Storytelling vs AI? Why You Still Need Both

AI is everywhere right now, but in the world of learning and development, how do we keep the human element front and centre?

In the latest Live and Learn podcast episode, we’re joined again by Sarah Mateljan to explore how storytelling and AI can work hand in hand to create more meaningful, personalised learning experiences.

We cover:
✔️ Why storytelling still matters more than ever
✔️ How to implement AI with purpose (not just because it’s shiny)
✔️ What makes personalisation essential in modern learning

If you work in L&D or are navigating the AI shift in your organisation, this episode is packed with practical ideas and thoughtful guardrails.

💥 Last year it was reported that 94% of organisations were hit with phishing attempts. The other 6% probably just didn’t check their inbox.
These scams aren’t dramatic. They’re disguised as normal and constructed to make you click.

Course Two of our Cyber Security Awareness series is built to tackle the everyday stuff that causes real damage.
‘Staying Safe Online: Phishing, Social Engineering, and Browsing’ helps teams:
• Spot the red flags hiding in plain sight
• Outsmart social engineering tricks
• Fix password habits we’d all rather not admit to (123ABC anyone?)
This collection is fast, sharp, and actually memorable.
Because if 94% of companies are being targeted, your team needs more than good instincts.

It’s Get to Know Your Customers Day and this clip shows the importance of assessing your customer.

Dawn French plays Clair, a customer in need. The rep she’s speaking to is efficient and polite, but completely misses the point. Yes, she has the facts, but she hasn’t quite read the customer.

It’s a reminder that knowing your stuff is only half the job. Knowing your customer is the rest.

Can leaders really balance resilience with vulnerability? Yes — and they probably should.

Especially if they want teams who trust them, grow with them, and don’t crumble at the first sign of a tough week.
In this week’s blog we explore how eLearning helps leaders practise the tricky stuff in a safe space, and why vulnerability might just be the secret sauce to bouncing back better.

🤖 Confused by AI in learning? You’re not alone.

Between the jargon and the fear-mongering, AI can feel like either magic or menace. But what’s actually true?

In the latest Live and Learn podcast, we chat with Sarah Mateljan the co-founder of GenLearn and 2024 AI Female Leader of the Year – to bust some myths and bring some real talk to AI in L&D.

👂 Hear why AI isn’t here to replace us – and how it can make learning smarter, faster, and (yes) more human
Because learning should stick even if the tech keeps changing.

👀 Think cyber threats are all hoodie-clad hackers in dark basements?
Think again.

Sometimes it’s just Dan in Marketing, one dodgy email, and a double espresso away from disaster.
We’ve launched a new blog and course series that proves your company culture might be your biggest cyber security risk—and your best defence.
🎯 Check out the blog: Why Culture Is Your Biggest Cyber Security Risk.

Cyber security warnings, reality TV wisdom, Taskmaster chaos, and... dogs. Just your average day at the CIPD Festival of Work 2025 🌀

Earlier this month, we roamed the buzzing halls — one moment deep in conversation by the L&D stage, the next trying (and failing?) to complete a Taskmaster challenge judged by the one and only Alex Horne

Jamie Laing gave us a masterclass in resilience and vulnerability (yes, it is possible to be both tough and soft), while Sarah Armstrong-Smith reminded us our cyber habits could use a serious upgrade.

Also, the dogs at the Wellbeing Corner? Game-changers.

We caught up with clients, met loads of brilliant new people, and left full of ideas (and probably a few too many freebies).

Here’s how it all looked 🎥👇
