Some takeaways from Natalija Hellesø talk at the Agile People Sweden Conference 2018.

• Factors that need to be considered while promoting learning in an organization: length of career is 60 to 70 years, average tenure in a job is 4.5 years, the half-life of a learned skill is 5 years
• Six trumps that make learning stick: movement trumps sitting, talking trumps listening, images trump words, writing trumps reading, shorter trumps longer, different trumps same
• Good next read for better training results “Training From the Back of the Room!: 65 Ways to Step Aside and Let Them Learn”
• Learning is still about acquiring knowledge, working hard to achieve something in a certain area, degrees, and certifications, or about an expert standing in front of you telling you what is best!
• The world of work is about putting things into practice, sharing knowledge with others to achieve results, it’s about getting things done
• As long as you keep learning and working separate, continuous learning will not improve in the organization
