The Identity Crisis of L&D: What Is the Learning Function Truly Responsible For?

This session explores the growing ambiguity around the role of L&D and why misaligned expectations continue to undermine impact. It challenges participants to clearly define what L&D should – and should not – own in today’s organizations.

After the session, participants will be able to:

• Clarify the core mandate and boundaries of the learning function
• Distinguish between L&D responsibility and broader leadership accountability
• Reframe L&D’s role in ways that align with business priorities
