Shelly Lafantaisie

As a Learning and Development (L&D) leader with over 25 years of experience—and more than a decade as a professional consultant, I am creative and passionate about ensuring learners are equipped with the necessary knowledge and skills to grow and thrive. With my strong and diverse L&D background, I partner with stakeholders to design, develop, and deliver effective and engaging blended learning solutions. As a Senior Instructional Designer (ID) and Developer, I excel at consulting and collaborating with senior leaders, project teams, and Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to define training needs and then translate those business requirements into performance-based learning.
