Help managers secure their success by learning to learn! How you learn and what you learn are inextricably linked. Imagine a manager who prefers to resolve situations on her own. If she is offered the opportunity to work on a new project as part of a self-managed team, she may decide to turn it down because it "doesn't suit her style." Or she may not succeed as part of the team because she tries to work out everything by herself. Every time a person avoids a task or uses an unsuitable approach, an opportunity to learn is lost. Both the manager and her organization suffer as a result. If you're striving to create a learning organization, the LTI is just what you've waited for! With the LTI, your participants will discover how they learn best and how they can adopt new learning strategies.
