How People Really Learn Best at Work

In this episode, I chat with author and learning & development expert Stella Collins to discover how our brains learn best at work.

The Learning Organisation expert, Peter Senge, once wrote: Taking in information is only distantly related to real learning. It would be nonsensical to say, "I just read a great book about bicycle riding—I’ve now learned that.”

In order to design and deliver effective learning and development initiatives, it's essential to understand how our brains process and retain information. During our conversation, Stella provided insights into how our brains learn best and tips on how to improve our ability to retain and apply our learning.

Whether you work in HR, as a Trainer/Coach/Consultant, or you're a Leader in an organisation, what Stella has to say is relevant, timely and important.
