Here are some core principles, from which we build learning environments and cultures.
The key to managing performance is managing learning; performance capacity grows when learning capacity grows
Learning is core to happiness at work. People leave jobs when they find they are no longer learning in their work
People are most motivated to learn when they learn to have a growth mindset
Most real learning at work happens informally rather than formally
New learning always becomes possible when people engage their existing strengths
Skills are optional, habits are automatic
People lose at least 80% of passive learning and retain over 80% of learning that engages them and is based on their questions
For everything you want people to do, it’s likely there are people in the organization already doing them well
People with best practices can and will share this learning with peers if they have the tools to do so
The most sustainable and least costly learning is learning how to learn, especially how to direct your own learning
