About Shilpi Prasad
As a passionate Learning & Development Leader with 15+ years of experience, I specialize in designing high-impact, people-centric learning strategies that drive business outcomes. My work bridges the gap between human potential and performance through a unique blend of instructional design, behavioral science, and emerging technologies like AI. I hold a Post Graduate Diploma in Training & Development from ISTD and serve as a Mentor at the Indian School of Business (ISB), where I actively support the growth of future leaders through structured coaching and experiential learning frameworks. I’ve led enterprise-wide training programs across hybrid workforces, enabling organizations to improve productivity, retention, and leadership readiness. My recent focus is on integrating GenAI tools (like ChatGPT, Synthesia, and AI-powered LMS) into learning journeys—accelerating design cycles and boosting learner engagement. I believe that great learning isn’t just built—it’s engineered through curiosity, empathy, and measurable outcomes. I bring to the table a leadership style that’s agile, inclusive, and deeply human.
