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":"Elevate 44: Stretching Your L&D Budget Further","slug":"elevate-44-stretching-your-l-d-budget-further","published_at":"2025-04-28T16:30:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/learning-uncut-430075/elevate-44-stretching-your-l-d-budget-further","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/learning-uncut-430075","url":"https://learninguncut.libsyn.com/elevate-44-stretching-your-ld-budget-further","audio_url":"https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/learninguncut/Elevate_44.mp3?dest-id=720224","summary":"In this episode, Michelle Parry-Slater returns to Elevate to explore how L&D professionals can make their budget stretch further.
