Organisational learning is observed to be an ongoing process of gaining knowledge and insights from past experiences that can be used to adapt and improve. How can an organisation be learning? Here are 7 simplifies lessons from the book “Harvard Business Review on Organisational Learning“.
👉 1. 🔍 : Learn from past mistakes!
Remember what went wrong? How to avoid future problems? If a marketing campaign failed, for example, analyse the reasons why and adjust strategy accordingly.
👉 2. 🤝 : Collaboration is key!
Encourage knowledge-sharing. This should foster a learning culture at work, if you are serious. Would you hold regular brainstorming sessions? Would you allow everyone to contribute ideas.
👉 3. 📈 : Measure progress!
Regular tracking and measurement of the performance helps identifying what’s working and what’s not. Do you have SMART KPIs? They help you ensure you meet your targets.
👉 4. 📚 : Keep on learning!
Continually seek out new knowledge and improve yourself and the organisation. Expand your skills, attend related conferences or courses. Don’t aim for cheap ones!
👉 5. 💬 : Communicate effectively!
Every business book says this!! so just encourage open and transparent communication to improve understanding as long as everyone has the chance to speak up. Would it help to build trust? .
👉 6. 💡: Innovate & take risks!
Well, Innovation is a big thing! But here, don’t be afraid to try new things. They say innovation is key to staying ahead in a competitive market. Would you dare to develop a new product or service to meet a customer expectation or need in a unique way?.
👉 7. 🌟: Celebrate successes!
Everyone loves celebrations. So, recognise and reward the team achievements even if they small ones. Would this motivate them to continue striving for excellence? Bonuses or praises are good tools, especially when a team meets or exceeds the targets.
