7 laws of learning

HRD-‘Development’ Interventions’”
2. Great leaders teach new ideas in ways that not
only engage people but persuade them to use their
free will for change. To lead people to a better place,
you must engage with them as learners and learn how
to teach as well as you lead. Here are seven laws or
principles that turn knowledge sharing into growth:
3. Law 1: “We are all born to learn”..
We must first believe that everyone wants to learn
and then understand the resistance— history,
approach, ego, frustration—and welcome that
person, in his or her own way, into a learning
experience.
4. Law 2: “You never know when
learning will occur”..
Its Sure that ..quit often “You see but you don’t
observe.” We are surrounded by metaphor, examples,
conversations, observations, interactions, and
experiences that are rich with learning and teaching
material. We can Learn by Wandering Around. Any
environment—a factory, office, schoolroom, nature—
is filled, for the attendant observer, with things to first
learn and then to teach.
5. Law 3: “You learn by
connecting”..
We are metaphorical, not literal beings. We learn and
remember best when we connect to life through
parables, metaphors, examples, and comparisons. Too
many leaders, believing we are literal learners, think a
barrage of data or facts in the form of documents,
slides, and speeches will persuade us to engage. A
well-told story with a clear connection to a challenge
or opportunity always works better than a bevy of
information.
6. Law 4: “We all learn differently”.
Early in my teaching career I learned about VARK
(Visual, Auditory, Reading-assisted and Kinesthetic
learners). Unaware that people learn differently, many
leaders assume that how they learn works for everyone
and then project their learning style through their
communication. By learning how people learn and
accommodating various styles, you connect with
more people in a meaningful way.
7. Law 5: “Connections come through
storytelling”..
In all societies, there’s a chief, priest, healer, and
storyteller. Before the written word, a society’s
knowledge base was conveyed through stories. We
engage with stories. Hence, learning to tell great
stories is key to engaging the people you lead.
8. Law 6: “Learning is both an emotional
and intellectual experience”..
Emotional connection to the teacher or topic opens a
door to the mind. Failure to open the emotional door
means that information, no matter how well crafted,
bounces off the door with little impact.
9. Law 7: “Learning can ‘change’
lives”..
By practicing Laws 1-6, you can gain access to the minds,
passions, and souls of people. In making such connections,
guided by the light of ethics and morality, you can change
lives, lift people, and impact organizations.
Teaching is a “sacred-calling” with serious
responsibilities and wonderful opportunities for those who
become able teachers. By incorporating these laws into your
leadership, you can teach people “through change” rather
than simply motivating, persuading or pushing—to a more
engaged and lasting success.
