Four L&D trends for 2027, argued live by 4 leading voices in HR and learning: Nicolas Bourgeois (Partner, PwC), Majid Kiani (VP Learning, Club Med), Evgeny Lukin (Director, Next-CLO program), and Mathilde Le Coz (President, Lab RH). Each puts forward the shift they see coming and what it actually means for a training plan. A session of applied foresight, hosted by Clément Lhommeau (Co-founder, Blify), at a moment when the last decade's reference points no longer hold.

In France, 31% of employees report zero hours of training over the past twelve months, even as 71% expect AI to change the skills their job requires (McKinsey & Company, 2026). The need for learning has never been greater, and the function has never been less equipped to meet it with the models currently in place.

2027 plans are being written right now, in that fog. Rather than a generic list of predictions, this webinar takes a four-voice approach: each speaker argues the trend they consider most consequential for 2027, and the others then respond, qualify, and connect it to what they see in their own organizations. Where they agree, you'll know it's solid ground. Where they disagree, you'll know where the real debate sits.

What you'll get

• Four trends argued live, each championed by one speaker, then discussed by the others

• A shared reading of the numbers on engagement, skills gaps, the role of AI, and how employees actually perceive training

• The breaking points in current models: what stops working in a conventional training plan in 2027, and why

• The calls to make before January: what needs deciding now, what can wait, and the most common sequencing mistakes

• An open Q&A with the speakers

None of the 4 trends will be revealed before the live session.
