Enemies of Learning

Seb's Open Research

Enemies of learning

Charles Feltman's Enemies of Learning (2-page .pdf) is a quick survey of personal factors that make it harder for us to approach the unknown. A few of the "enemies" that George picked out:


  • Our inability to admit that we don't know
  • The desire for clarity all the time
  • Inability to unlearn
  • Lack of trust

Great to see Seb Paquet blogging again after a short hiatus. This article is a great little pointer to the business world to think about organisational learning. I have a background in teaching, so a lot of this makes sense to me. Organisations firmly need to consider people first. If they do, like this article suggests then the business will surely be sound.
