About Jennifer Thorndyke

I’m a Senior Learning & Development Partner focused on building capability and future-readiness across Caterpillar’s global workforce. I design scalable learning programs, partner with business leaders to align training with enterprise priorities, and lead initiatives that close skill gaps across dealer and field operations.With a background in instructional design and global curriculum development, I leverage DACUM, needs analysis, and data-driven evaluation to create learning that is practical, relevant, and measurable. My work often involves cross-functional collaboration, consulting with HR and business stakeholders, and leading curriculum strategies that support large-scale organizational outcomes.I’m passionate about helping people build confidence in their roles and empowering teams to adopt new skills with clarity and purpose. Whether I’m developing a multi-session facilitator program, building evaluation frameworks, or enabling field representatives worldwide, I aim to create learning that is accessible, business-aligned, and designed for real on-the-job performance.
