Creating a Team Culture of Continuous Learning

Culture-Driven Team Building,

There is mounting concern that organizational groups and teams often fail to learn from their past experiences. It’s pertinent to address this issue as groups and teams are often the main ways that work gets done in organizations. In this course, we examine the main reasons that groups and teams are often ineffective, which include: • The lack of organizational structures and support for teams and groups • The lack of understanding and emphasis on learning • Misaligned reward structures So, what can be done to create an enabling learning culture in teams? This course emphasizes practical and impactful ways to begin to address this state of affairs. Through the use of stories, scenarios with actors simulating different team issues, examples and dialogue, you learn how to: • Understand teams in their larger organizational context • Diagnose the learning strengths and barriers to learning on teams • Identify ways to develop a team and group that continually learns and impacts the larger organization positively • Create an organizational environment that encourages learning and innovation

What people are saying

new things learnt now

Its amazing and new things learnt now my mind is towards building a good team This course was really a great insight & learning for me The last week really brought everything together.

taken where suggested external

This must be the first course I've taken where suggested external materials were probably more valuable that course materials itself.

mooc is quite original

The format of this MOOC is quite original (discussion between a few speakers) and stimulating.

discussion among multiple professors/instructors

great course It reminds me about team building and a lot of memories regarding meetings ;) I loved this course- the format of a discussion among multiple professors/instructors who are also practicing what they are teaching was very interesting and helped drive home the course concepts.

bit watered down

The reason for that must be that lectures are in the form of a dialogue, occasionally very excited and emotional, between the entire instructors' team of 4 - the result feels a bit watered down, if you will.

brought everything together

helped drive home

illustrating some points

This course does include video vignettes, which I enjoyed, and I thought were helpful for illustrating some points.

If anything, this course has inspired me to look further into enabling structures of learning which I will try to do with my team at work.

memories regarding meetings
