S2 Ep2 – WTF Does It Take to Be a Thought Leader with Dr Alaina Szlachta

With a podcast about personal growth and self development, I bring topics and guests to the show to share their stories and messages to help us all grow. To continue growing as a podcaster and thought leader, I reached out to an expert for some guidance. Last season, we heard from Dr. Alaina Szlachta, founder and lead learning architect of By Design Development Solutions. Alaina helps thought leaders create learning products that transform people’s lives. In this episode, we flip the script. Listen it to Alaina as she coach es me on how to identify what kind of learning program would be best for me and what that really means.

Alaina Szlachta is a doctor of education, a learning architect and mission-driven entrepreneur. She founded the company By Design Development Solutions, helping authors and entrepreneurs translate their unique subject matter expertise into consumer learning products that cause positive transformation. Alaina is also the VP of Professional Development at ATD Austin.

When Alaina is not building learning products, you can find her renovating houses, taking long walk-and-talks with friends, and working out with her 82-year-old mentor.
