Performance Impact Week · Day 1 · Positioning L&D to the Business

🎬 Day 1 of Performance Impact Week 2026. Theme: Positioning L&D to the Business. If leadership doesn't see L&D as a business function, it won't be resourced like one. This session looks at what it actually takes to get learning onto the P&L — and what happens when the business says no to the plan you were sure they'd say yes to. 🎙️ SESSIONS 💰 From Learning to the Ledger: How CFOs See Learning's Impact on the P&L A candid conversation between a business leader and a CFO, unpacking how learning investments show up — or fail to show up — in the P&L. With Robert Wagner (Co-founder, CLO100) and Marko Horvat (SVP of Business Transformation, ELB Learning). 🧱 What I Learned When the Business Said No Dr. Tekeisha Zimmerman on building a leadership development function from the ground up — using human-centred design and data to pick the right starting point, and still missing something critical. Includes her BUILD framework. With Dr. Tekeisha Zimmerman (Founder, Masterpiece in Progress Learning). 💬 Plus a live Q&A and optional breakout rooms with fellow L&D professionals. 🔗 SPEAKERS & RESOURCES Robert Wagner →   / robertwagnerclo100   · https://clo100.com/ Marko Horvat →   / marko-horvat-cpa   · https://www.elblearning.com/ Dr. Tekeisha Zimmerman → Masterpiece in Progress Learning 📅 TALK TO THE HOSTS Performance Impact Week is hosted in collaboration by Knowly, Kirkpatrick Partners, The Institute for Transfer Effectiveness, and Trevato.
