Ep. 39: Designing for Impact in Non-Profit Learning with Heather Burright
<p>In this episode, Vidya speaks with Heather Burright about what it really takes to design learning in complex, mission-driven environments. They explore how L&D shifts when authority is limited and influence becomes essential, especially in federated nonprofit structures. The conversation touches on designing learning as a conversation, building from learner experience to enable inclusion, and rethinking measurement when post-training access is limited. Grounded in real practice, this episode offers a thoughtful look at how context shapes learning strategy, design, and impact.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Connect with Heather</strong></p><p><br></p><p>LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/heather-burright/</p><p>The Non-Profit L&D Collective: https://www.skillmastersmarket.com/nonprofit-learning-and-development-collective</p><p>The Learning for Good Podcast: https://learningforgood.buzzsprout.com/</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Podcast Episodes About Measurement</strong></p><p><br></p><p>- https://podcasts.apple.com/sg/podcast/how-to-measure-behavior-change-and-impact-in/id1621971310?i=1000684674477&l=zh-Hans-CN</p><p>- https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how-to-position-training-as-an-investment-from/id1621971310?i=1000742300016 </p><p><br></p><p><strong>Connect with Learnnovators</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Website: https://learnnovators.com/</p><p>LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/learnnovators/</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Connect with Vidya</strong></p><p><br></p><p>LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/srividyakumar/ </p>
