Mentoring - Share your knowledge

Don't drag your sorry self into 2024

It's that time of year, you know, that time where if you were fortunate to have a break then you at some point will be returning to work, your job, your business your passion hopefully.

So how can you return to work without feeling that holiday hangover?

If you are already back at work and hating it, this message is for you.

There are some really simple strategies to help you get ready to return to work or your business without feeling dread.

One of the ways is to be sure you have enough rest, and you can feel like you have recharged. I don’t know about you but I reached the end of the year exhausted, fatigued from stress and really need a break, in fact day one of my 2-week break, I got sick, so sick that I couldn’t do anything, this wasn’t a coincidence I can assure you, I probably knew unconsciously that I was going to crash and burn and if I didn’t I would have kept pushing through.

2023 was full of amazing opportunities, and great achievements for all and it was also one of the hardest years of my career that I had experienced in some time. You see I had a plan, it was a great plan that would change lives, not only my team's but our client's lives and ensure they can build a better future.

By December I knew I needed a break so I could come back to work fresh and achieve all the plans we have made back in 2023 for 2024/2025.

Those of you that have a job and spend every day at work hating it, get a grip, or should I say a new job, you aren’t stuck so stop spending 40 hours a week doing something you hate. If that’s where you are going to stay, then start getting grateful for what you have and so on a daily basis.

I am grateful for my job as it …..fill in the blanks

Thank you for my job while I get my side hustle off the ground.

Even if you think you hate your job there are always things to be grateful for.

Mentoring - Share your knowledge

Mentoring - Share your knowledge.

As Coaches and Mentors, we want our students to get the most from our sessions and when we understand why shared knowledge is important to are more willing to share skills and attributes that we have learned along the way. We can be more conscious about planning our session to include key learnings and more importantly failures and encourage others to share. It doesn't matter whether you are delivering face-to-face or via ZOOM you can ensure there is a high level of interaction and storytelling in your session to engage your mentee.

In this Podcast, I share why it's important to share the knowledge you learn along the way, Let's build the next generation of lifelong learners and leaders.

Adult Learners and Principles that are the key to learning.

Season #6, Episode #2

Adult Learners and Principles that are the key to learning.

Learning Face to Face will always be a desire of many adult learners.

As educators we want our student to get the most from the our sessions and when we understand the Adult Learning Principles we can be more conscious about planning our session to include this and encourage others to share. It doesn't matter whether you are delivering face to face or via ZOOM you can ensure their is a high level of interaction and story telling into your session.
 
 In this Podcast I give some personal examples and how this has been beneficial and also explain Malcolm Knowles theory on the 6 Principles. See below for his example from the internet.
 
 Malcolm Knowles defined the term andragogy in the 1970s as ‘the art and science of helping adults learn.’

Knowles identified the six principles of adult learning:

1. Adults are internally motivated and self-directed

Adult learners make choices relevant to their learning objectives. They also direct their learning goals with the guidance of their mentors. Students need to be given the freedom to assume responsibility for their own choices.

2. Adults bring life experiences and knowledge to learning experiences

Educators encourage learners to connect past experiences with current knowledge and activities. Educators must know how to relate the sum of the learner’s experience to the current learning experiences.

3. Adults are goal oriented

Adult learners aim to acquire relevant and adequate knowledge and for this reason intended learning outcomes should be clearly identified. Once the learning goals have been identified, educators must align the learning activities such that these objectives are fulfilled within a certain period of time.

4. Adults are relevancy oriented

Adult learners benefit by relating the assigned tasks to their own learning goals. If it is clear that the activities they are engaged into, directly contribute to achieving their personal learning objectives, then they will be inspired and motivated to engage in projects and successfully complete them.

5. Adults are practical

It is very important for educators to identify appropriate ways and convert theoretical learning to practical activities. Work placement is a way for students to apply the theoretical concepts learned inside the classroom into real-life situations. Learning is assisted when appropriate ways of implementing theoretical knowledge in real life situations is made clear.

6. Adult learners like to be respected

Adult learners thrive in collaborative relationships with their educators. Learners become more productive when they’re considered by their instructors as colleagues. When their contributions are acknowledged, then they are willing to put out their best work.
