701 The Role of Learning Culture in Facilitating Change
11:30 AM - 12:30 PM Thursday, May 28
In times of change, learning moves front-and-center. To be successful at change, you need an environment in which learning is well supported and thriving. It stands to reason that if you already have a healthy learning culture, change is more easily accommodated. But if your learning culture has weaknesses, change will likely be more difficult.
In this session we’ll discuss how to evaluate the health of your learning culture, and how to strengthen the elements that may need shoring up. It won’t be easy to work on learning culture at the same time as the organization is stressed by change, but it may also be the opportunity you need to implement actions that will cultivate learning culture in the short and long term.
In this session, you will learn:
- The foundations of learning culture
- Cultural barriers to learning and change
- Tactics that strengthen learning culture
