But learning is contextual
If learning is so hard (and
nobody likes it), how do we
develop our talent?
Question to the class
• 70% of skills are learned from EXPERIENCE:
- challenging job-based development tasks
- special job-based assignments, including Talent Acceleration Programmes(TAP) and other experienced based learning progs.
• 20% of skills are learned from FEEDBACK:
- 360 degree feedback, learning from others, observation based learning programmes
- supervisors, coaches, mentoring programmes etc
• 10% of skills are learned from TRAINING:
- self-development, training programmes, classroom-based learning
- Coursework
“True” development combines all of the above
