People often send out communications and videos around what they want, see a bit of behaviour change in individuals and presume they\u2019ve got a culture.<\/p>\n<p>But habit changing and building take time, which then shapes that winning mentality. Hence that idea of the 10,000 hours mentality. Companies tend not to break down what the right mindset and culture mean for people and teams or consider how they&#8217;ll do it over a period of time.<\/p>\n<h3><b>What mindset is required to deliver L&amp;D effectively? <\/b><\/h3>\n<p>A just cause, because you\u2019ve got to have something you believe in and drive towards in L&amp;D. Psychological safety also plays its part because people need to be able to bring their true self to the team and feel like they won\u2019t be shouted down or discredited.<\/p>\n<p>But the actual mindset starts with self-awareness, you need to practice and carry out exercises that help you. People talk about growth mindset but that\u2019s for the individual, a learning mindset says you\u2019re part of a wider ecosystem where you need to grow. When you learn collaboratively and talk about something you\u2019re more likely to remember it. And when you have a learning mindset you get an innovation mindset too, helping you keep ahead of the curve.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Working out if you have a learning mindset<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>How much are people sharing on whatever internal communications platform you\u2019re using? Not the official company comms but the informal moments where people are saying \u2018I learnt this&#8217; and share it with other people. Innovation is a good measure and so is gaining an understanding from management on sentiment around giving feedback or how many brainstorming sessions there have been.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Dealing with impostor syndrome<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Talk about it, in the same way you would raise concerns about mental health and talk about how you feel. You as an individual need to recognise it and be conscious of it, take classes or talk to peers. Maybe look at the positives and what you do have or what you\u2019re great at, managers can help by encouraging people to share what they\u2019re good at and knowledgeable with.<\/p>\n<h2><b>How to connect<br \/>\n<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Find\u00a0 Toby on <a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/theneverendinglearner\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">LinkedIn<\/a>.<\/span><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hundo.careers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Find Nelson on <\/span><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/nelsonsivalingam\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">LinkedIn<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ThatNelsonDude\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Twitter.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Find HowNow on <\/span><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/hownowhq\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">LinkedIn<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hownowteam\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Twitter<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><a class=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/instagram.com\/hownowhq\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instagram.<\/span><\/a><b><\/b><\/p>\n<h2><b>Where to subscribe<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to watch the episodes, head over and <a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UC4QrYnD1H3oqVeAQQTyOhGQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">subscribe on our YouTube channel<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>And if you prefer to listen to your podcasts, search on whichever app you use or click on one of the links below:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/70k8Cfn70DcPD0CEBA1ySs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Spotify<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.breaker.audio\/99-problems-but-work-aint-one\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Breaker<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/anchor.fm\/gethownow\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Anchor<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.google.com\/feed\/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy85ZDNkMGQ0L3BvZGNhc3QvcnNz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Google Podcasts<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/99-problems-but-work-aint-one\/id1572432505\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Apple Podcasts<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why do so many organisations find it so difficult to establish and build their desired&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":437,"featured_media":19811,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[3119],"tags":[1645,1595],"yst_prominent_words":[817,9,827,1306,349,1505],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.liquid-themes.com\/hownow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19806"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.liquid-themes.com\/hownow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.liquid-themes.com\/hownow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.liquid-themes.com\/hownow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/437"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.liquid-themes.com\/hownow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19806"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/staging.liquid-themes.com\/hownow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19806\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19975,"href":"https:\/\/staging.liquid-themes.com\/hownow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19806\/revisions\/19975"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.liquid-themes.com\/hownow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19811"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.liquid-themes.com\/hownow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19806"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.liquid-themes.com\/hownow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19806"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.liquid-themes.com\/hownow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19806"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.liquid-themes.com\/hownow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=19806"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
