Event Description
Transformation implies change. Learning loops can lead to better outcomes.
Often, we allow perfect to be the enemy of good. Agility uses experiments based on assumptions to drive outcomes. How can we experiment and take the resulting learnings to make them useful in our transformations?
Learning is not a linear process, but a loop, in which a circular path is followed along which teams and their management continually evaluate, assess, and improve progress toward goals over time. Learning loops encompass the definition of agility by performing rapid, iterative learning cycles, seeking progress over perfection.
Executive and Team Coach Jim York will share insights, personal anecdotes, experiences, and pragmatic guidelines to help you bring these concepts into the transformation of your organization. He will discuss the power of double-loop learning and its practical application in the interconnected learning loops of purpose, process, and people which surround the ultimate learning loop — discovering the needs of the customer. He will also discuss four key elements, or stages, of the learning loop:
Goal Setting - identifying desired outcomes and definition of success
Execution - building and executing experiments (single loop learning)
Inspection - reviewing the experiment output to gather insights on fit for purpose
Adaptation - applying new knowledge gained to guide the next experiment (double loop learning)
