Learning From The Edges
The world of work is full of friction. Departments work in silos. Work gets stuck. Teams find workplaces are not as easeful as they could or should be. And in all of this human beings are caught in the challenges, resulting in poor work, mental health worries and worse. As a research project, Learning From The Edges will look at the edges of work, where friction exists and explore what gets in the way of work and of learning. Why is there friction? How can work be more fruitful for organisations and people? What barriers do people have and what practical ways they can overcome those barriers?

EP#20 Challenge yourself and your thinking: Reflections on Learning From The Edges podcast
Thank you for listening to the Learning From The Edges Podcast during 2023. As with everything it's important to pause and take a moment to reflect. No better time of year to do that than the Christmas break.
This week Michelle takes a moment to thank you for listening. She starts to look at some of the themes which are emerging from this podcast. Plus she encourages you to do your own reflection, expand your network and set yourself a learning challenge for 2024. Remember that we can learn more from the friction in work by considering the different people involved and their perspectives.
As a member of the Learning From The Edges podcast community, we would love to hear what you have taken from this project and where you think we should go from here. Drop Michelle at email with your thoughts, or connect on LinkedIn - be sure to mention the podcast in your connection message.
Thanks once again for joining us throughout this series, recorded in 2023. We look forward to speaking with you in the next episode when we're back from our festive break and resuming our regular schedule in 2024.
