What if learning wasn’t the goal, but performance was? In this episode, Nolan Hout speaks with Eileen Macdonald-Cooke, former Chief Learning Officer at Amtrak, about how L&D teams can become true business enablers by focusing on measurable performance outcomes. The conversation explores the difference between a learning culture and a performance culture, why skills alone don't guarantee results, and how L&D can connect its work to business KPIs. Eileen also shares practical approaches to using targeted learning interventions, reinforcement, performance data, and technology to support employees in the flow of work. The discussion also explores how AI can help L&D teams deliver faster, more precise, and performance-focused learning experiences.
