Meet our March Member of the Month: Morgan Sammons!
Tell us about your experience in the Talent Development space including places you've worked, roles you've held, and organizations you're a part of.
I have been in L&D at Signature Performance since 2021. In my role, I get to develop our Associates by coaching individuals and teams, facilitating learning events, creating digital courses, leading virtual live courses, helping subject matter experts around the organization deliver their messages, and building curriculum for our expanded learning programs.
What are some of your interests, strengths, and unique qualities that would help others get to know you better?
I am a Gallup-Certified Strengths Coach and am currently pursuing my Associate Certified Coach credential with the International Coaching Federation.
My first job after college was as a graphic designer and I take a lot of pride in the visuals I create that help others learn.
What "work related" accomplishment(s) are you the most proud of?
I am proud of all of the work I have done so far, but I believe my career is just taking off. Ask me again in 5 years.Are there specific people in the Talent Development space you follow and why?
I love following Jon Acuff. We have used some of his books for our company-wide reading program and I really appreciate his perspective and writing style. He's insightful, but more importantly, he's funny and interesting.
Do you have any favorite books or resources that you think others would find helpful?
I have an endless stream of books and resources that have had a positive influence on my work and career.
And I'm a big reader, so I'm always looking for more ideas. I'd love to connect with other ATD Members and exchange reading suggestions!
