Elevate East Unplugged

Welcome to Elevate East Unplugged, the podcast that takes you behind the scenes of Learning & Development (L&D) in the East of England and beyond.

Hosted by Michael Casanova (Wilby Jones Consulting), Nadine Tapp (Flagship Group), and Margaret Burnside (Cake People Development), this is where serious thinking meets fun and unfiltered discussions.

Born from the incredible conversations we have while planning Elevate East, we wanted to keep the energy going, bringing you real talk on learning and development and all related subjects. Expect candid insights, expert guest speakers, and the latest thinking in L&D, all designed to challenge, inspire, and elevate your impact.
