How AI is Redefining Skills & How We LEarn - John Sangimino

How is AI redefining the way we learn?

Why are simulations a powerful tool to close skill gaps?

My guest on this episode is John Sangimino, Associate Director, Learning Design Center of Excellence at McKinsey & Company

During our conversation John and I discuss:

  • The three essential truths of learning design—and why all learning is experiential
  • The behavioral science behind why people don’t always apply new skills after training
  • Why behavior change is the true measure and outcome of impactful learning
  • How AI is impacting cognitive skills, judgment, and career capital
  • The power of simulation-based learning—from VR scenarios to structured feedback exercises—as a way to close skill gaps
  • How to design useful and high-impact simulations that build key skills
