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#30 Discussing Friction with the L&D Shakers
This week we bring you another live episode, recorded with the most marvellous L&D Shakers in London. We were blessed to be welcomed back to where we started, The Dorchester Collection Academy, where we gathered to discuss friction in work and learning for this last episode of the series.
We shared our three key questions with our audience, discussing the shared friction we face. So many themes we have seen over this whole podcast research bubbled up in this opportunity to share ideas and experiences from across the L&D Shakers community.
Be sure to join Michelle for one last time, as she addresses the Learning From The Edges live podcast audience, sharing her findings and further questions sparked by this research project.
Special thanks to Lucie Coudret and all the London L&D Shakers, and of course Beth Aarons and Scott Robson at The Dorchester Collection Academy for providing such an excellent venue for our return visit for another live podcast recording and series finale.
