335 — Adjacent learning
Mar 14, 2023
Can we improve our workplace performance through learning outside of work? Are there benefits to this? How might we go about it?
This week
on The Mind Tools L&D
Podcast, Gemma and Ross Garner are joined by David Hayden and Steve George, authors of
'Adjacent Learning'
to discuss the possibilities and
practicalities of learning elsewhere.
We cover:
-
what adjacent learning is
-
how we can learn purposefully from other places
-
how can we reflect on what we know and do outside of work that will help inside work?
