Learning from experience means optimising the value of experience - and using it. Reviewing is all talk. Reviewing does not need to be 'all talk' - there are many other ways of communicating effectively. Reviewing ends with looking ahead.
Some benefits happen without the aid of a plan or action point.
What matters in reviewing, however formal or informal, routine or adventurous it might be, is that it actually helps people to learn from their experience. Material for this workshop will be drawn from this handbook, as well as from Roger's PhD thesis about management learning and development. The typical learning sequence is explanation, example, trying out the skill or method, reviewing what happened, and considering developments and alternatives. Supporting handouts are included with all workshops to minimise the need for note-taking and to maximise involvement. New workshops will be announced later this year to coincide with the publication of two new handbooks.
