FINAL EPISODE: Farewell Putting the Piec...

Jigsaw Learning
About this episode

In episode 50 of Putting the Pieces Together, the FINAL episode, Jennifer, Lorna and Kurtis reflect on the growth of Jigsaw Learning and Collaborative Response as their own advice is taken: from getting started with podcasting to share a message to taking aim by refining the focus to be definitive and purposeful in reaching the intended audiences.


Key learnings over the course of the podcast include being authentic and sharing not only the learning but the heart that went into the celebrations, the challenges, the mistakes, and the successes.


If you can take away one thing from this episode as you continue to refine and deepen your understanding, it is the hope that as you progress, you experience the cumulative effect of making a point of each and every step along the way trying to make things just a little bit better.
