***What if the most important part of an in-person learning experience is no longer the content?***

In a world where information is instantly available through AI, the real value of bringing people together may be what happens beyond the slides.They also explore the difference between engagement and true experiential learning, why facilitators may need a different skill set than trainers, and why meaningful behavior change cannot be achieved through a one-and-done workshop.
