To sustain a culture of learning, organizations need to go beyond the initial push and focus on creating social circuitry that integrates learning into daily work.
Key strategies for building sustainable learning systems include: building cross-team connections, embedding learning in daily work, measuring learning outcomes, building organizational resilience, and evolving learning practices.
Practical sustainability strategies include creating self-reinforcing systems, maintaining leadership focus, refreshing and renewing learning practices, and addressing emerging challenges.
Signs of a successful learning culture include natural learning discussions, seamless knowledge sharing, active pursuit of learning opportunities, free knowledge flow, routine innovation, and quick adaptation.
