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?

Learning From The Edges
EP#23 Seeking A Sustainable Engaging Learning Experience. With guests Tess Robinson & Rob Hubbard.
This week we dive into the subject of sustainability in L&D, why it matters to absolutely everyone, and how L&Ders can impact the bigger needs of the business. Sustainability is not a simple decision to put on another round of face to face workshops or choose to move online. There is a lot more nuance to the situation which our guests Tess & Rob walk us through.
Founders of award winning learning provider LAS and founders of the Green L&D community on LinkedIn.
