Update Learning Team Mission _index.md

Tre Ely requested to merge tely2-main-patch-2388 into main

Why is this change being made?

I don't think the current mission is an accurate representation of why the Talent Development team exists. I want to workshop a bit more; but in the meantime, I think this is a more accurate description of the mission driving this team. Happy to share/add more.

💡 Provide a detailed answer to the question on why this change is being proposed, in accordance with our value of Transparency. If Talent Development (L&D) were here soley for career development, the work we are prioritizing would look quite different. When I think of leadership development (Elevate), High Performing Teams, adopting and adapting a Challenger Mindset, etc ; these initiatives are more squarely focused on PERFORMANCE. And, I think it's a good thing. Career growth, career development is a happy outcome of what we do, but not the reason we exist.

CHANGEME - add the details saying why, not just what.
