In this week's episode of Ongoing Mastery: Presenting & Speaking, Kirsten talks with Ryan Austin of Cognota about storytelling, public speaking, and why learning & development needs to be part of design and operations from the beginning.Our favorite moments:(02:25) Anything you do involves telling stories as part of communication(04:03) It’s ok not to be sharp around the edges(05:50) Don’t practice a script, practice the key points you want to remember(08:39) A partner operating model positions L&D as a partner with the business to effectively prioritize and collaborate(12:32) Despite feeling nervous, take the initiative. The worst that can happen is a “no”(13:27) Build a Learning Culture Committee or Advisory Board to position L&D as problem-solvers, not order-takers(14:22) First define success, then work backwards to assess how to get there(17:44) Community is at the core of Cognota, not an add-on    If you enjoyed this conversation about the entrepreneurial journey, check out Season 2, Episode 21, my conversation with Kristin N.
