Transcript of Learning strategies
One good reason to dive head first into self-initiated learning is that much of what you were taught is already obsolete.

ExampleRecognize that people want to more than only consumers / buyers. In other words, recognize that people would like to be involved, to help out, to co-create.

People, who learn well by observing, like to, for example, watch photos on www.instagram.com, watch videos on www.youtube.com.

What do you like to read? A newspaper app? Blogs you subscribe to? Postings from people you follow on www.linkedin.com? Tweets from people you follow on www.twitter.com?

Instead of saying to yourself that you want to “read more” or “learn new things”, be much more specific.
Example“Spend 2 hours every Thursday afternoon reading all the articles I saved during the week.”

Kolb showed that adults can’t learn merely by listening to instructions. They must also absorb the new information, use it experimentally, and integrate it with their existing knowledge.

If you practice a slightly modified version of a task you want to master, you actually learn more and faster than if you just keep practicing the exact same thing multiple times in a row.
ExampleIf you want to get better at writing / blogging, try to use different blogging software, for example www.blogger.com, www.wordpress.com, and www.medium.com

Some learn best by looking at graphics or reading. Others would rather watch demonstrations or listen to things being explained. Others need a
“hands-on” experience.

To get the most out of learning experiences,
reflect on them immediately following an
activity.
What have you learned from the experience?

https://hbr.org/2016/03/dont-let-your-mistakes-go-to-waste
What were the reasons for that mistake you made along the way?
What could you have done better?

Research participants who did an arithmetic brain-teaser and then reflected on their
strategies for solving it went on to do 18% better in a second round than their peers
who hadn’t set aside time to reflect.

When we laugh, we relax. As anxiety decreases, our capacity to retain information expands.
The heightened emotion that humour evokes doesn't just make it easier for us to hit upon insights we otherwise wouldn’t - it also helps us remember them.

If learning is to persist, managers and employees
need to also reflect on their own behaviour.
