Join the number one spot for Talent Development professionals to learn, connect and grow.
The Talent Development Think Tank Community is where talent development professionals come together to share best practices, discover the latest trends, hear from experts and solve challenges so that they can perform better in their jobs and help their companies develop their people more effectively. If you are looking for new ways to engage and develop your people and accelerate your career success, this is the place for you. We have three levels to accommodate the different phases of where you are in your talent development career and journey.
Being a part of this community has made “going solo” A LOT less lonely. I really treasure the relationships and knowledge I’ve gained from this beautiful community Andy put together!

This community has been extremely valuable to me - allowing me to build my network in a time when traditional networking activities are not possible. It has been a sounding board for ideas, a way to get input and suggestions, and learn about trends in talent development.

Explore Membership Options:
Early Career Professional / Foundation:
The Foundation level is great for early career, junior, or aspiring talent development professionals who want to learn as much as they can from others as well as focus more on the tactics of the job. This includes many of the foundational pieces of building a successful career in L&D.
This level gives you access to our member vault of past calls and trainings as well as one call per month with the bigger group, with topics generally focused on more of the tactics necessary to be successful in different talent development roles. This might include career management, project management, facilitation, etc. You will also have the opportunity to connect with more experienced professionals in the larger community.
This level is focused on helping you accelerate your success in their early years in the field and connect with and learn from seasoned professionals.
Experienced Professional / All-access:
The main or “All-Access” level is for experienced talent development professionals or anyone who wants to maximize their learning and connections in the world of talent development. This level gives you access to all of our past calls and trainings as well as four calls per month with experts on topics you want to learn more about.
This is our original membership level that has helped so many talent development professionals grow their knowledge and network as well as accelerate their success in their field.
The all-access community is great for professionals looking to advance their careers, move into bigger leadership roles, and influence change within their organization.
Our weekly calls will give you access to interact with experts and peers as well as ask them questions that you wouldn’t normally get a chance to do. However we recognize that you have a busy schedule so all of our calls are recorded and you can pick and choose the topics that are most relevant to you.
Group members also have the opportunity to lead calls and mentor foundation members. This is great for someone who wants to build their brand and become a thought leader in their area of expertise.
Entrepreneur
The Entrepreneur track is great for coaches or consultants who are looking to start or grow a brand and business in the corporate space.
The Entrepreneur level includes access to all of the recordings and weekly live calls in our main community as well as an additional monthly group call exclusively for entrepreneurs.
Monthly call topics include marketing, networking, personal brand, getting referrals, sales, LinkedIn, and more.
If you want to have a trusted group to consult with on your strategy and ideas, and receive support, advice, and accountability - this is the group for you!
As humans, we are not meant to do things on our own. We need community.
This is especially true in Talent Development. It’s not productive or healthy to try to do things all on your own. But most memberships out there do not provide the real, authentic, trusting relationships that we all crave. The Talent Development Think Tank Community is here to put an end to that noise! Much like our conference, this community is built on trust, authenticity and the need for us to work with and support each other.
The TDTT community is a place to connect, grow, learn from colleagues and experts and solve real challenges so that you can achieve more success in your career and feel more fulfillment along the way.
What do I get?
Weekly Calls with Guest Experts
Inside the Talent Development Think Tank Community, we host live Zoom calls each week. Calls range from featuring guest experts such as Liz Wiseman and open forum calls (a member favorite!) where members get to collaborate and mastermind on different topics and challenges they are working on. We also have several member-led sessions where we give our members a chance to showcase their expertise and answer questions from other members who want to learn from them. One thing we’ve found by doing this the past two years is that our members love learning from each other!

Slack Community Forums
With your membership you receive access to our private Slack community, which includes a host of different channels, including a job board where we post new career openings; solution generators where members collaborate on problems they're having; learning technology for members to discover and review new platforms and programs; vendors so that members can ask for recommendations, and a separate channel for early career professionals to mastermind in.
Networking Sessions
Inside the community, we hold quarterly speed networking sessions to give everyone in the community an opportunity to meet and chat with other members and get to know each other. We believe there is nothing more critical to career success than having a great network and we want to help. Members have walked away with friendships, business partners, and collaborations.
"TTDT has been vital in making connections outside my organization with others in the L&D field. The conversations are genuine and informative. The open networking and topic-specific sessions are great jump-starters for deeper conversations 1:1 with professionals I've met through the group. It's great that we can access meeting recordings - and Andy and team always have a fabulous line-up of speakers. This community is well-worth the time and money!"
