Overcoming Resistance to Learning

Resistance to learning is a common challenge faced by teams when trying to adopt new processes or methods. Individuals often hesitate to embrace change because they fear being wrong or question the value of what they haven’t yet experienced. The analogy of 'The Karate Kid' is used to illustrate how one can unknowingly build essential skills through seemingly unrelated tasks, highlighting the importance of persistence in learning.
