Building a Learning Culture

In this episode, we discuss building a learning culture.

There’s been an ongoing conversation and focus on the ‘learning culture’ of an organization for at least the past decade, and there are many articles over that time which talk about the connection between a culture that supports individual learners’ interest in learning and connects it with the mission and goals of the organization. And over the past few years, we’re seen some statistics which suggest a learning culture is at least correlated with business performance.

This episode looks at building a learning culture through the experience and guidance of Rachel Horwitz, the global director of learning and development at Convatec.

Rachel describes how she and her team implemented a strategy to support a learning culture in the organization, structed around four pillars:

• Senior leadership partnership and sponsorship
• Curriculum
• Learning Operations
• Measurement
