As instructional designers our primary goal is to create enriching experiences for our learners similar to crafting a well-prepared dish. Yet just as a recipe can fall flat without the right ingredients and processes our designs can miss the mark without careful consideration. In this session we'll explore how women in L&D can navigate challenges drawing insights from my time in the kitchen and as a mother while leveraging design thinking to overcome obstacles and find creative solutions. Join us as we blend the art of instruction with culinary wisdom crafting a recipe for success in both learning and life.
