45 — How important is curiosity in L&D?

May 16, 2017

New tech, new approaches, new fads: Our industry is awash with exciting developments, but do we approach them with the curiosity of a magpie or the curiosity of a scientist?

On this week's GoodPractice Podcast, Ross G is joined by Owen and Giorgio to look at curiosity in Learning & Development. We discuss the importance of questions, the love of learning and the fun of failing (quickly!).

If you have any thoughts on the show and fancy getting in on the discussion, you can tweet us: @OwenFerguson, @CoachGiorgio and @RossGarnerGP.

You can also tweet @GoodPractice or @GoodPracticeAus.
