I’m working in an organisational capability area at the moment, so I’m thinking a lot about how people get their 70% and 20% of learning. Here are some useful examples for the 70% Experience factor:
- cross-functional team work
- brainstorming sessions
- lessons-learned sessions
- designated stand-ins for experts or senior managers
- special projects or teams
- job change or rotation
- task force participation
- corporate social responsibility projects
- leaders serving as teacher
- presenting at a forum
- leaving a project involving matrix management
- international experience on global projects
- leading a large change initiative
And for the 20% exposure:
- in-house networking
- mentoring
- peer coaching
- digital coaching
- shadowing
- professional associations
- communities of practice
- structured opportunities for peer networking
