Learning Pool’s Hang Ten with Brenda Strand

Introducing Learning Pool’s ‘Hang Ten’

We know that the impact of the recent global pandemic and the uncertainty that surrounds it is putting strain across all areas of business, and that includes Learning & Development. Thus inspiring Learning Pool’s ‘Hang Ten’ series.

This video series will consist of informal five-minute chats and will give you a great opportunity to feel connected to others in the industry and gain a rare glimpse into their day to day lives. Sharon Claffey Kaliouby will be hosting the series and will be joined by a number of learning professionals to discuss how they are in general and how they’re coping with the current climate.

Sharon was joined by Relationship Manager, Brenda Strand, for series 16. Brenda, who works with channel partners to provide training content as a value add and additional revenue stream for her partners,  discusses the challenges of the past year and encourages people to focus on the positive changes that have come with it.

As #womeninlearning, Sharon asks Brenda how she has been able to maneuver and stay relevant in the industry, especially during these times. Brenda shares the importance of being a good coach to motivate others and develop a strong team, which in turn will help you accelerate your own career.

What is a Hang Ten?

According to the Wiki dictionary, a Hang Ten is ‘a surfing maneuver in which a surfer stands and hangs all his or her toes over the nose of the board.’ It’s a maneuver all surfers want to achieve on a longboard and requires great skill and expertise. At Learning Pool, a number of our innovative products are very water-driven, we have our LXP Stream, Waves, Rapids, and Flo.  We also work with some of the most impressive client companies,  so we thought this idea fit perfectly.
