Key Takeaways:
- Learning organizations are built on storytelling, shared myths, and cultural narratives—not mission statements.
- The gap between training and education lies in understanding the "why" behind skills, not just the "how."
- Mistakes are not just acceptable—they're essential for growth and should be part of a deliberate feedback loop.
- Younger workers thrive in environments that recognize and label their skills as valuable.
- True leadership means modeling vulnerability, owning mistakes, and fostering loyalty through empathy.
