Staying Curious, Together: How to Create a Learning Culture (Inside Out Episode 2)
Episode 2 of From the Inside Out: Achieving Better Development Outcomes through Collaborating, Learning and Adapting was released today! Stream it below or subscribe to the USAID Learning Lab podcast wherever you listen to podcasts to be notified when new episodes are available.
In the first episode of the series, we talked about the characteristics to look for when building an adaptable, learning-focused team.
In this episode, we’ll discuss the key ingredients in a learning culture. First, we define what we mean by a learning culture. Next, we look at research that examines the relationship between CLA and measures of staff satisfaction and empowerment at USAID. And in our third segment, we talk about a successful staff empowerment initiative at a USAID mission.
Bonus! We've created a coloring page to go along with the episode. Listen with your team and tweet photos of your colored-in pages to @USAIDlearning.
