Shownotes

I am proud to kick off the second season of the Learn to Grow Podcast with special guest Heather McGowan, co-author (with Chris Shipley) of The Adaptation Advantage. Heather is renowned internationally as a keynote speaker, a regular Forbes contributor, and a futurist outlining how learning and adaptation are crucial to our personal and professional lives.

In our conversation we discuss:

  • Why the pace of change is faster than ever…and will never be this slow again
  • The three A’s: Atomization, Automation, and Augmentation
  • The three questions that show how invested we are in our professional identities
  • Why engagement tails off in school, and then the workplace!
  • The education to workplace pipeline
  • Why we need to add capacity every time we hand off a task to automation
  • Digital transformation as a learning-centric culture that leverages data
  • Why the conditions in which we create will be more important than our products and services
  • Why we all need to ABL - Always Be Learning
