The Learning Company Can Help You Turbo Charge Your Learning
Welcome and twice welcome to the learning company.
We have a crisis of learning in our organisations and the learning Company wants to help.
Whether on the phone, in meetings, or in cyberspace, we are constantly exchanging ideas, gathering information, and putting plans into action, all through the medium of conversation. We are presented with enormous opportunities to learn on a daily basis and yet in my experience many people are simply looking the other way.
If you were to review the global research on managerial effectiveness and employee engagement, you would be forced to come to the conclusion that, in spite of billions of dollars invested in leadership development and employee training, we are just not very good at change and learning in organisations.
Are you struggling to deal with one lot of changes after
another?
So busy you don't have time to put into your own
development?
Don't have a clue what your next career move might
be?
Like to develop your leadership abilities but not another
course please?
Have a untouched employee development plan in the bottom
drawer somewhere?
Would like to encourage your team to be more flexible and
adaptable?
Would like to be able to better lead yourself and your team
through change?
Want to lift the performance and engagement of your team?
Want to support and encourage a colleague in developing
their effectiveness?
THIS IS WHAT THE LEARNING COMPANY IS ABOUT
How to foster better learning for individuals and organisations.
How to improve work relationships
How to create better places to work
How to get more done
How to figure out new stuff
How to cope better with change
Or remembering my old evolution lectures in another word it’s about adaptation.
Why can learning at work be so hard?.
It is somewhat ironic that learning can become one of the first casualties of reactive busy environments; leaders and managers for a number of reasons don’t create time for reflective thinking.
A little learning theory here (sorry) Contemporary neuroscience research is suggesting that we very often act from habit; many of our responses are hardwired as we jump in to try to solve problems with very little awareness of whether what we say or do will achieve our desired results.
In times of pressure and change this can become the “default setting” for many managers. This is the looking- the- other- way scenario; we place insufficient attention on seeing how we are impacting on others.
This lack of awareness prevents us from learning how to communicate more effectively or discovering better ways of thinking.
You could argue that this is always one of the greatest challenges facing any organisation and any individual: how to keep improving how to figure out new things to do, how to respond to changing circumstances.
You will over time find lots of practical ideas and tools here to help you as well as ideas and information to stimulate your own thinking and reflection.
Learning theorys for the theoretically inclined
Practical templates and employee development plans for the practically inclined
Provocative articles for the conceptually inclined
Things to try right away for the activists amongst you
You will have things to enable you to kick-start your own learning or foster it in others
But you need to add some of the magic ingredients,
Thinking and doing..
