56. The amazing value of learning – why and how, with Rob Woods

56. The amazing value of learning – why and how, with Rob Woods

For the last five years, the pace of change (including in the fundraising environment) has been greater than ever. And since the pandemic began, it’s felt turbo-charged. Since change seems unlikely to slow down any time soon, it is now more important than ever that we embrace learning as a key value. Unless we make time to keep learning, as individuals, fundraising teams and organisations, we will fail to adapt to all the new opportunities and challenges. In this episode Rob explores four powerful reasons why learners get rewarded for the effort they put in, and then shares 8 ways you can do it in practice. Most of these ideas are relatively small shifts and tactics that anyone can apply, regardless of resources. They are mostly about what you give importance to and how you choose to approach life and work.
