Mentorship can make a difference in many different ways.

Sometimes it’s someone who sees potential in you before you see it yourself.

Sometimes it’s a different perspective when you’re stuck.

A push when you need one.

An opportunity you might not otherwise have had.

Or an honest conversation at exactly the right moment.

Last week, you recognized mentors and shared stories. This week, we want to take the conversation one step further.

What did a mentor give you when you needed it most? And what would you add to our list?

How much time are your managers spending documenting field coaching sessions?

Don’t miss next Wednesday’s LTEN Demo Days featuring aCoach.

Join this October 14 presentation for a look at the new AI Coaching Advisor and how it can help managers turn spoken or written coaching feedback into structured Field Coaching Reports in under five minutes.

See how the AI Coaching Advisor can:

✔ Convert a manager’s coaching recap into a structured FCR with actions and LMS-linked resources.

✔ Flag gaps and ask follow-up questions before the report is finalized.

✔ Work within your existing coaching model, without requiring you to redesign your process.

If improving coaching quality while saving managers time is part of your 2027 planning, join us for this 30-minute demo session.

In the heavily regulated life sciences sector, training is a high-stakes critical need.

L&D leaders must rapidly upskill workforce teams — from commercial reps handling complex medical dialogue to manufacturing teams enforcing GxP standards — without sacrificing compliance or audit readiness. Traditional e-learning simply can’t keep pace.

Join us next Tuesday, October 13, for an LTEN webinar presented by Skillwell to see how AI-powered learning can help address some of life sciences’ core L&D challenges.

You'll learn how to:

✔ Accelerate time-to-competency: Quickly adapt training to new drug launches, clinical updates and regulatory shifts.

✔ Mitigate operational risk: Use AI simulations to master critical, high-stakes workplace interactions and protocols.

✔ Scale precision upskilling: Deploy personalized learning pathways that address specific role gaps across R&D, commercial and manufacturing teams.

How do your AI practices compare?

A new study from TGaS Advisors, a division of Trinity looks at how life sciences L&D organizations are moving AI beyond experimentation and toward measurable business value.

Drawing on insights from 45 learning leaders across 44 life sciences organizations, the study explores where AI is delivering value, where organizational readiness is lagging, and what high-performing L&D functions are doing differently.

The full 2026 Annual State of Learning & Development in Life Sciences study is available to LTEN members.

Getting AI role plays into your learning strategy is one thing. Getting the field to actually participate is another.

Boston Scientific achieved 100% participation in its AI role plays. So, what made learners engage?

Join us next Friday, October 9, for an LTEN webinar with Sean Rogers of Boston Scientific and Shiladitya Mallik of SmartWinnr to explore how Boston Scientific is using AI role plays to support learning and field readiness.

You’ll learn how to:

✔ Drive participation by making AI-powered practice relevant and engaging.

✔ Design role-play experiences around different skills, conversations, audiences and learning objectives.

✔ Use AI role plays for product and message practice, customer conversations and ongoing skill development.

✔ Make AI-powered practice part of a broader learning and readiness strategy.

You’ll also hear lessons Boston Scientific has learned as its use of AI role plays has evolved.

Boston Scientific achieved 100% participation in its AI role plays. So, what made learners engage?

Join us next Friday, October 9, for an LTEN webinar with Sean Rogers of Boston Scientific and Shiladitya Mallik of SmartWinnr for a practical look at how Boston Scientific is using AI role plays as part of its learning and readiness strategy.

You’ll learn how to:

✔ Drive participation by making AI-powered practice relevant and engaging for learners.

✔ Design different role-play experiences based on the skill, conversation, audience and learning objective.

✔ Use AI role plays across product and message practice, customer conversations, readiness and ongoing skill development.

✔ Incorporate AI-powered practice into broader learning and readiness initiatives rather than treating it as a standalone activity.

You’ll also hear lessons Boston Scientific has learned as its use of AI role plays has grown and evolved.

Think about the people who helped shape your career.

The person who gave you an opportunity before you were completely sure you were ready.

The colleague who challenged the way you thought.

The leader who shared what they had learned instead of making you figure it all out yourself.

Sometimes we formally call them mentors.

Sometimes we don’t realize they were mentoring us until much later.

As we begin a new month, we’re celebrating mentorship and the connections that help us grow.

Who comes to mind for you? Tag them below or tell us what they taught you.

Your field teams need information now. But much of what they need is still sitting in documents, presentations and training materials that aren’t easy to consume on the move.

Join us next Tuesday, October 6, for an LTEN webinar with Michael Nels, Head of AI at uStudio, and Jeffrey Greenberg, Executive Director of Training & Development at Arcutis.

See how Arcutis developed its streaming program and explore how AI and always-on audio and video can help get timely learning and communications to the field faster — through a Spotify-like channel directly in the flow of work.

You’ll learn how to:

✔ Build and scale an engaging podcast, audio and video program.

✔ Turn existing training materials into field-ready audio and video using AI while maintaining accuracy, brand standards and editorial control.

✔ Deliver learning and communications in the flow of work to increase adoption.

✔ Use listener analytics and consumption data to understand what’s actually reaching the field.

See how the content you already have can become learning your field teams can access when and where they need it.
