The person behind L&D Academy

Zubin Rashid

Founder · L&D Strategist · Management Trainer · Course Creator

Zubin Rashid has spent years at the intersection of management development and learning design — helping organisations build better leaders and helping L&D teams become more strategic. He has trained professionals across 100+ organisations in 155 countries through live programmes, online courses, and direct coaching.

He built L&D Academy because he saw a gap — L&D professionals needed more than content. They needed peers, coaching, and a guide who understood both the craft of learning design and the realities of organisational life. Everything at L&D Academy — the community, the courses, the coaching — is designed to help practitioners make the shift from execution to strategy.

Our values

What we stand for

Six beliefs that shape every product, session, and resource we build.

L&D is a strategic function — not a support service

The best learning professionals shape how organisations perform, not just how they train. That shift in mindset changes everything.

AI is an opportunity, not a threat

The practitioners who thrive will use AI to amplify what only humans can do — think, connect, coach, and lead.

Community accelerates growth

The fastest way to grow professionally is to be surrounded by people who challenge your thinking and share your ambition.

Learning must connect to performance

Content without context changes nothing. Great L&D professionals design for outcomes — not activities.

Management development matters most

How leaders behave shapes culture, performance, and retention. Get management right and everything else follows.

Practitioners deserve great resources

Most L&D content is built for learners. We build for the people who design, deliver, and lead learning.

Our mission

Why L&D Academy exists

L&D Academy exists to help L&D professionals move from execution to strategy — and from practitioners to leaders. We believe the future of the profession belongs to those who can think critically, act strategically, and lead with confidence in a world where AI is reshaping everything around them.

The L&D profession is at an inflection point. AI is automating the execution layer — content production, needs analysis, programme administration. What remains — and what becomes more valuable than ever — is human judgment, strategic thinking, and the ability to connect learning to business outcomes.

L&D Academy was built to help practitioners make that shift. Through community, coaching, courses, and resources — we give L&D professionals everything they need to become the learning leaders their organisations need in an AI-powered world.

AI is not the threat. Staying an order-taker is.

The practitioners who thrive will use AI to do more of what only humans can do — think strategically, build relationships, coach managers, and align learning to what the organisation actually needs. That is the shift L&D Academy is built to support.
