Many higher ed leaders want to apply lifelong learning to their institution but it’s often easier said than done. Understanding what goes into applying this model across the institution is critical to serving modern learners well.

This is the key to moving from DENIAL to AWARENESS ➡ Relevance. For adult learning to truly resonate, it must be relevant and applicable. Consider a marketing professional learning about inclusive advertising. The relevance is evident when they see how inclusive campaigns can reach broader audiences and drive engagement. This practical application bridges the gap from denial to awareness. The “aha” moment is when learners connect theoretical concepts to their professional reality, overcoming initial skepticism. Consider a white man learning about diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice initiatives. The goal is to demonstrate how DEIJ initiatives can enhance personal and professional effectiveness. For white men, it is beneficial to frame DEIJ not as an external agenda, but as a set of principles that can lead to better business outcomes, such as increased innovation and market share, and appeal to diverse customer bases. For example, a session might include case studies showing how diverse leadership teams have led companies to outperform competitors. Want our tips for incorporating successful adult learning principles into your workplace? 💻 Register for our upcoming Virtual Learning Lab titled "5 Steps for Future-Proofing Your DEI L&D Strategy" on July 31: https://lnkd.in/ed_SA6K3 💬 Read more on our blog, The Inclusion Solution, where we give you practical tips every other week for leading DEIJ that works: https://lnkd.in/eaTSM-Wa #DiversityAndInclusion #DiversityEquityAndInclusion #AdultLearning #AdultLearners

What is an insight and where to find it? Last week, I attended the second boot camp class of the PRWeek UK-backed Creative Mentoring Scheme 2023 and learnt all about insights and the power of universal truth. You might’ve probably guessed it….I was thrilled to be selected as one of the mentees this year and be paired up with David Fraser 👨💻 The session, hosted by Michael Sheen, David and Sarah Firth, is a crash course in how to identify business/communications problems to figure out a good creative insight that is inspiring, relevant and valid, and how to distinguish facts, observations and insight. Working in the creative industry means that “insight” or “ strategy” is something we hear daily, but it never gets old to learn about the structure in a new way or how others see it, does it? For me at least. Here are my three key takeaways: ✍️ There is no one way to do things, we just need to look at the problem from different perspectives. An insight is something that’s true and lets us see the problem in a new light, something that’s so refreshing and surprising at first, but also common sense ✍️ Insights help connect the dots between experiences and solutions, so we need to broaden our frame of reference and experiences ✍️ An insight can be found and forged through reading, listening, enjoying, and learning - whether it’s through politics, market research, media, social, digital or culture. For example, what can it tell us about culture when we're all rooting for The Traitors? Is the Faithfuls inherently good and the Traitors inherently bad? (I'd read a PhD thesis on that topic 🤓) #Insight #CreativeTraining #CPD
