We aren't looking for someone to just "run a workshop." We need a seasoned L&OD Manager who acts as a culture architect. You will bridge the gap between business needs and human potential, designing high-impact learning journeys and delivering them with the poise of a pro. This role is for a mature leader who understands that behavioral change happens through empathy, not just slides.

2. Instructional Design & Content Creation
- Modern Pedagogy: Design engaging learning materials using various formats (e-learning, instructor-led workshops, blended learning, and micro-learning).

- Performance Management: Assist in the design of appraisal systems and "High Potential" (HiPo) programs to identify future leaders.
5. Analytics & Impact Measurement

- Reporting: Present monthly dashboards to leadership showing participation rates, completion scores, and skill progression.
