As AI rapidly reshapes how companies operate, where does Learning & Development fit into your organization's long-term plan? Instead of high-level AI buzz, this meetup focuses on the real-world strategy needed to navigate the next three years—how L&D leaders can position their teams to drive meaningful, enterprise-wide impact.

Diana Anderson, a fellow member of our community, raised this pivotal question and asked to bring together a small group of peers facing this exact challenge. Rather than another standard presentation, this exchange is designed as a focused, collaborative discussion over lunch to share real approaches, challenge assumptions, and sharpen your strategic roadmap.
