New Learning Impulses

What are the differences between skills and competencies? Should your HR go skill-based or competencies-based?

Research from LinkedIn has shown that half of today’s most in-demand skills weren’t even on the list three years ago. As a result, there is now a premium on intellectual curiosity and the desire and ability to quickly grow and adapt one’s skill set. How can you create a learning culture on your own team or in your organization? First, reward continuous learning. Note that rewarding curiosity is not just about praising and promoting those who display an effort to learn and develop; it’s also about creating a climate that nurtures critical thinking, where challenging authority and speaking up are encouraged, even if it means creating discord. Be sure to give people meaningful and constructive feedback — it’s hard to improve on anything if you are unaware of your limitations. As a manager, practice what you preach. And finally, hire curious people. It’s easier to augment potential than to go against someone’s nature.

People feel motivated to learn, and the big thing that will keep them engaged and doing their best work is development opportunities. Organizations can take some specific actions to ensure they’re able to deliver what employees want and what will benefit the business as well.

Discover the skills that high-performing learning and development professionals and teams need to succeed and navigate today's world.
