Advanced Systems Group (ASG) has hired Ivan Lochan as learning and development manager. Lochan reports to Jody Boatwright, VP & GM managed services, media production, ASG.

“Ivan is at the forefront of learning and development at ASG. His leadership and our investments in learning tools and technology are helping ASG’s workforce stay sharp and well informed,” said Boatwright. “Our team has grown exponentially in the past several years. Ivan’s experience achieving business success at large companies by empowering talent with knowledge and information is exactly what we need to strengthen our teamwork and maximize communication. ASG already has a very enthusiastic, positive culture, but adding Ivan’s skills will enhance that significantly.”

ASG strives to provide the people, services, and technology necessary to innovate and navigate change, and believes providing exceptional guidance to the industry at large starts with creating an optimal environment for ASG employees. The company says Lochan’s expertise is a vital component as it strives to provide and foster a culture of continuous learning and creativity. Learning and dialogue circles, internal workshops, employee surveys, team building, and more are on the horizon to nurture inclusion and brilliance.

Lochan brings over a decade of experience in human resources, talent management, and learning and development to his role within the Managed Services group at ASG. As training and development manager, Lochan will oversee employee experience, management and employee training, team effectiveness, and employee engagement initiatives. He has begun to implement programs and strategies to make all employees feel seen, heard, and valued through new connections and learning opportunities. Lochan will roll out a learning management system, leadership development workshops, and new ways for ASG experts to share their expertise.

“My background has prepared me well for my position at ASG,” said Lochan. “While not in the media and entertainment sector, I’ve worked with healthcare, retail, and nonprofits to align their people, processes and policies to drive business success. That’s what I’ll bring to ASG as we support our team members with the right tools, training, and growth opportunities.” Most recently, Lochan served as training and development manager and DEI Chief of Staff for telehealth provider Array Behavioral Care.
