Beyond ConsultationShow Notes
Introducing Dr. Toby Lowe
FULL VERSION AVAILABLE HERE
Our latest episode, number 29, is with Dr. Toby Lowe on Human Learning Systems - and the show is almost an hour long! So if you're a little bit strapped for time, then we have cut up this shorter episode for you.
What I wanted to do with Toby was explore what it might mean to embrace human learning systems here in Aotearoa New Zealand.
So if you've got a commute or a moment to yourself and you just want to get to the core of what Toby was talking about, then this summary is for you.
In today’s episode you’ll learn:
How do we translate Human Learning Systems into language that makes sense in New Zealand - or do we build our own?
Why it’s important to be ‘human to each other’ in a public service setting.
The importance of experimenting to create effective local solutions.
Thoughts on how we can invest our time and energy centrally vs. locally.
