Key Takeaways:

Passion drives success. It’s never too late to learn. Whether you are a child, a young adult, middle-aged or an OAP, it doesn’t matter there’s always opportunities to learn. Think about different learning types. If you’re creating learning for people, think about how you’re creating that learning and how do you expect people to connect with it. How are they going to retain that knowledge? Be humble enough to learn from mistakes, if you and an organisation make a mistake, just be humble just say look I made a mistake that didn’t work out. Think two-way doors, most things can be undone. Make learning fun, it aids knowledge retention. Learning doesn’t need to have high costs. Installing mechanisms like an After-Action Review is useful. Just Google, there’s lot of free resources and templates freely available. It doesn’t have to cost money to be able to learn, you can benchmark from other people, other organisations and look at published reports that are online. You can even build a strong network on platforms such as LinkedIn to share knowledge. Take ownership of learning as individuals and organisations and learn how to learn.
