We're all about keeping it \"real.\" Here's an overview of our approach: Strategy and tactics. We want to unpack the strategy and how-to's of creating great learning solutions, frameworks and teams. CONVERSATIONS, NOT SCRIPTED DISCUSSION Our podcasts are professional but not so edited and polished that they lose their authenticity. We want our audience to hear real people having real conversations and sharing real examples and advice. PROGRESSIVE We want to showcase the \"unsung L&D heroes\" out there doing great work, being brave and trying new things. PRACTICAL We invite our guests to share tips and strategies to help listeners take their solutions to the next level. We aim to provide actionable takeaways for our listeners through show notes, links and downloads wherever possible.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-30T06:20:05.857606+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/learning-uncut-430075"},"episode":{"title":"185: Learning as Investment, Not Cost – Tina Schust Robinson & LaTanya Foster","slug":"185-learning-as-investment-not-cost-tina-schust-robinson-latanya-foster","published_at":"2026-05-18T15:30:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/learning-uncut-430075/185-learning-as-investment-not-cost-tina-schust-robinson-latanya-foster","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/learning-uncut-430075","url":"https://learninguncut.libsyn.com/lu_185","audio_url":"https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/learninguncut/LU_185.mp3?dest-id=720224","summary":"Most leadership programs start with the how; the workshop, the elearning, the coach. The business case often comes later, if at all. In this episode, Michelle Parry-Slater speaks with Tina Robinson, founder of WorkJoy and author of Developing Your Business Leaders, and her client, LaTanya Foster, VP of People at global travel accessories brand BÉIS, about what happens when you start with the why instead. Together they share the story of Altitude, a director-level leadership development program built for a fast-moving, disruption-hit business and make a compelling case for why treating learning as a business investment, not a budget line, changes mindsets.
