Stop The Chaos: Make the People Impact Loop® Work For You

Let’s face it — most L&D teams aren’t short on effort.
They’re short on structure.

They’re running fast, reacting to requests, launching learning at speed… but with no system to tie it all together. No loop. No throughline. For the most part, L&D has become a content factory.

In the final episode of Series 2 of the podcast, Han brings the series full circle, and brings the People Impact Loop® into sharp focus.

This isn’t a recap. It’s a reset.

Because the People Impact Loop® isn’t just a framework. It’s the structure L&D has been missing — a way to stop doing more for the sake of it, and start doing better with what you’ve already got.

In the episode, we unpack how each part of the loop works in practice, and why skipping even one step is what keeps learning functions stuck in the “activity trap.”

We talk about what happens when you actually start with your audience, instead of building for “learners.” Why alignment to business goals is more than lip service. Why experience design is the difference between content that sticks and content that sinks. And why internal campaigns should look more like marketing launches — not Monday-morning emails.

But more than anything, this episode reframes measurement. Because without insight, there is no loop. Without learning what worked (and what didn’t), you can’t evolve, improve, or earn trust.

This final conversation is a call to stop guessing. Stop firefighting. Stop chasing engagement with no idea what impact looks like.

Because the truth is, L&D has been working hard, but running on a hamsters wheel. The People Impact Loop® helps you change that by:

• Understanding your people deeply.

• Connecting your L&D strategy with the wider business.

• Designing experiences with intent.

• Actually marketing your content with purpose.

• And most importantly, measuring what matters.

It’s not about doing everything. It’s about doing the right things, in the right order, on repeat. Momentum, not perfection, you might say.

So if you’re tired of the chaos, the noise, the one-and-done launches, this episode is your invitation to do it differently.

Happy listening friends! 🍍🎧
