Learning, learning people, learning organisations, and culture
The world is global. It is therefore not surprising that in your training courses you are increasingly faced with international participants or a cultural mix.
The impact of culture on learning
You will certainly already have found that cultural aspects play a part in the way people and organisations learn, share knowledge, think and talk about effective learning.
For instance, a particular learning skill may be perceived as more valuable in one culture than in another. For example, divergence and convergence are skills on which views in Germany and France differ. We already know that empiricism is not typically French, and that it was not the Spanish who invented coaching.A clear understanding of the basic elements of a culture, which to a certain extent influence learning by people and organisations, thus provides a valuable insight into the international situation.
To acquire or improve this understanding, we offer an all-round solution that considers ‘the impact of culture on effective learning’, in the form of either your good old-fashioned training course or dozens of other forms of learning. You have the choice between familiar and more exotic forms of learning.
In addition, we also offer you, with consultation and therefore made to measure, the possibility of zooming in on the cultural aspects of your course or learning content and to compare your views on effective learning with other views.This may be particularly valuable if – as a trainer or educational institution – you wish to extend your activities across borders. However much you may be convinced that your view of effective learning is right, there is a real chance that you will have to discuss this with people who have a different view. And what should the outcome of this sort of dialogue be?
