The Learning Strategist · with Luca Vettor
Learn faster than your job changes.
My mission is to help you build a learning strategy for your next professional chapter, and to stay relevant even as AI takes over junior roles.
The Learning Strategist newsletter, on Substack.
Sound familiar?
You want, or need, to change jobs, and you have to learn something new to get there.
Maybe you want a new chapter. Maybe your role is changing under you, or AI is taking over the work you started with. Either way, the next step asks for skills you do not have yet.
Most advice tells you what to learn. Very little tells you how to learn it while you are still doing your current job.
That is a road I know well. In 26 years of work I changed fields several times, and every time I learned first.
A learning strategy turns that from a scramble into a plan.
From the opening of When Everything Is Urgent.

The person behind the ideas
I’m Luca. I write for people who need to learn their way into what comes next.
I studied physics, became an econophysicist, then a developer, a project manager and a team leader, and finally an information architect and technical writer. Every time I changed jobs because I wanted to, and every time learning came first.
I’ve drowned in useless notes. I’ve chased apps. I’ve forgotten things I should’ve remembered. After 26 years I know that staying relevant is a learning problem. The Learning Strategist turns that experience into the mindset and methods you can use for your own next chapter.
Physicist turned tech writer. Author of three books.
