Connect. Grow. Learn.

The Breakfast Club has a 17-year history of connecting leaders over breakfast to strengthen the link between learning and development and business strategy. In 2022, the Breakfast Club returns as a virtual, mini-event series hosted by Chief Learning Officer and Talent Management and will feature top CLOs and learning and talent leaders. 

Each month’s mini-event will last about 2 hours and will consist of a 60-minute panel discussion with L&D and talent practitioners, a 20-minute FASTtalk presentation and a 20-minute breakout session for attendees and speakers to discuss the day’s themes, followed by closing remarks from CLO’s editor in chief.
