Learning How To Learn

Module 1 - What is Learning

Focused/Diffuse Modes Thinking

• Obviously ‘focused’ is when you’re concentrating. Direct approach to solving familiar problems.

Keep notes

My dad -who’s been in this business for over three decades- taught me a long time ago “a consultant must always keep a notebook”. And really, this is the single most important piece of advice you can get. Take your notebook everywhere you go and take note of everything. As a consultant you’ll be asked to absorb information like a sponge. You’ll be expected to build a detailed understanding on the processes and needs in a very short span of time. After a few workshops you might even be asked to answer questions about their business that they’ve not had the time to answer themselves. You won’t be able to digest everything on one go, so you better make sure you can fall back on some solid quality notes. And here’s where I update my dad’s advice. Keep a digital notebook. Really, there’s no better way. you’ll probably be faster typing than writing, you can go Ctrl+F and find things in the blink of an eye, you can move pages and reorganize your notebook seamlessly, add images, links recordings, etc. P

I can tell you the things I look for when interviewing a pending or recent graduate:

1. Passion, intelligence, communication skills.
2. Able to explain their thinking, approach, and analyze strengths / weaknesses of an approach.
3. Good problem solving, ability to iterate on solutions. Quick thinking.
4. Clear understanding of boundary between what they do and don’t know.
5. Good attitude.
