I'm including this item today because it's really really weird. The writer tries to achieve some sort of 2020s-snarky dialect, and fails utterly, in my view. It feels like a man trying to write like a hip and with-it woman, or maybe a woman writing the way she thinks a man would want to write like a womant. Then there are the graphics.... oh, the graphics. Shoulder-bare mouth-open woman juxtaposed against a blue banana? But just when you thought the weirdness was over, a jarring change, as it introduces us to a half-dozen "friends" who work in the field and write things like "the most imperative is to mobilise deliberate upskilling" or "start focusing on business outcomes instead of learning outcomes" or "we need to show radical accountability." If they offered anything more than a LinkedIn profile (they don't) I think the seven friends would probably be worth following, but this group as a whole needs to rethink how it presents itself to the world.
