Organizational culture of learning


With the development of new technologies and new activities, life in the VUCA world of change (…) leads us to cognition of learning as a continuous process within the organization. Today learning in the workplace has changed. It is no longer training or education that employees must attend, instead of that it is a continuous learning with the use of various media (training, coaching, books, videos, reflection on what has been learned …).

An organizational learning culture is culture that encourages learning. Developing a culture that supports learning is an investment and at the same time provides huge benefits to the organization. A learning culture is important because it helps to inhance the potential of employees and grow the business. From employee engagement to increased productivity, a learning culture is something every organization should have to develop.

Changing workplace culture to one that supports learning is not something that happens overnight, but the first steps in building a culture that promotes learning could be the following:

LEARNING – BASIC ORGANIZATIONAL VALUE

To successfully build a culture of learning, employees must feel that management/leaders support a culture of learning. One way to do this is to make learning a core value of the company and to be seen at all levels of management at the behavioral level.

Why? Precisely because core values ​​drive decision-making and guide the activities that organizations undertake. A commitment to learning also means that the company is committed to providing the resources needed to support employee learning and development.

 PERSONALIZED LEARNING PLANS AND CAREER DEVELOPMENT

Personalized or customized learning plans make learning more relevant to employees, and that learning turns into development. By setting learning goals and strategically developing a plan to achieve them, employees will be more engaged in the learning process, and more motivated because they have a sense of autonomy in developing their careers.

 LET LEADERS LEAD BY PERSONAL EXAMPLE

Leaders who are engaged and committed to their lifelong learning directly influence the learning culture and the implementation of company values. One of the effective ways to connect with employees and further motivate them is to share managers’ experiences of learning from their own mistakes.

 CREATING THE RIGHT ENVIRONMENT FOR LEARNING AND SHARING KNOWLEDGE

Sharing knowledge is an important part of creating a culture of learning. When employees are encouraged and rewarded for sharing knowledge, they will be more engaged in learning. This is also one form of building a strong learning culture.

EMPLOYMENT PROCESS AND LEARNING CULTURE

One of the best ways to develop (utilize) a learning culture is to emphasize the value of learning in the recruitment process. Practice shows that companies working in this way attract candidates for whom growth and learning are of high value.

The development of organizational culture requires time and a series of smaller steps that need to be defined and implemented. Very important in maintaining a culture of learning is the authenticity and living value of learning. Here we are talking about high values ​​which, if lived, are manifested at the level of behavior and possibly lower fluctuations, employee motivation, and engagement.
