The recent PCA Playlist Screening was a standout event for the learning and development (L&D) community. Our CEO, Joe Fredericks, shared a powerful video recap highlighting key takeaways from this inspiring gathering. In case you missed it, here’s a quick summary of what made this event truly memorable.
1. A Shared Passion for Transforming Learning
Despite the diversity in industries, geographies, and L&D functions represented at the event, one common thread united everyone: a commitment to scaling engaging, high-impact experiential learning. Attendees brought fresh ideas and insights, all aimed at making learning something learners can love again.
Joe described it as a motivational moment, seeing so many leaders aligned on a vision to deliver experiential learning that goes beyond the ordinary.
2. The Science of Storytelling and Emotional Engagement
One of the standout moments was a presentation by Nick Shackleton Jones, who dove deep into the science behind creating learning experiences that truly stick. His key message? Emotional engagement and storytelling are critical ingredients for effective learning.
Research shows that learners remember stories and experiences far better than facts alone. By designing learning programmes that evoke emotions and tell compelling stories, organisations can create experiences that learners not only enjoy but retain for the long term.
3. Real-World Impact: What Clients Are Saying
Perhaps one of the most exciting takeaways was hearing how clients are already using the PCA Playlist in innovative ways:
- Enhancing their existing learning programmes by integrating PCA Playlist content.
- Leveraging the Playlist as a scalable in-house learning solution, enabling broader reach and greater flexibility.
Hearing how the Playlist is making a tangible difference in the real world was both eye-opening and rewarding for our team.
Looking Ahead: Season 2 in 2025
While we’re still reflecting on the success of this event, we’re already planning for the next chapter. Season 2 of the PCA Playlist is coming in 2025, and we’re excited to build on the momentum we’ve started. Stay tuned for more updates!
