How to Learn Like a Lobster with Helen Tupper

We used to go to work to learn to do a job. Now learning IS the job. Whatever your job or career stage, staying relevant and adaptable is essential to succeeding in a Squiggly Career. It’s never felt more important to learn at work but finding the time, space and motivation to make it happen can mean learning never makes it to the top of our to -do list. We need a new way to learn, that reflects our reality and feels motivating and useful. Enter our unexpected role model for learning at work….. a lobster.

In this practical workshop we’ll explore how learning like a lobster will support you to be even better in your job today and increase your career opportunities for the future.
