116: Design Patterns for Learning – Catriona Malcolm

In this episode of Learning Uncut, I speak with Catriona Malcolm (or Cat as she is also known). She is the Enterprise Design Practice Lead at Westpac Group. With a workforce of around 40,000 people across seven business entities whose core service is banking, Cat’s role was created four years ago specifically to address the complexity of designing skills development solutions across these seven entities. We cover a lot of elements of the Westpac approach in this episode. We look at approaches such as “learning front door”,  “citizen development” and their L&D Community of Practice. Cat has provide excellent resources - if you’d like to dig deeper you can find these below.

Om Podcasten

Learning Uncut is about real conversations around real learning solutions and real experiences with real advice from real people. 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.
