The importance of learning in knowledge work lies in the ability to continuously acquire new knowledge and skills. The traditional notion of knowing everything is being replaced by the concept of being a learning worker. Effective knowledge workers recognize that they don't have all the answers, but they have the capability to figure things out by constantly learning and researching. Being a learning worker means that one's skill set is not limited to a specific specialization, but rather the ability to learn becomes the primary skill. Specialized knowledge is still valuable, but the true value lies in knowing how to learn, which opens up opportunities to explore new domains.
