How can you make real progress in the skills you need to excel at your job? In this episode of the Mind the Skills Gap podcast, host Stella Collins talks with L&D expert Georgie Cooke about the distinction between knowledge and skills, and why building skills requires consistent, intentional practice, performed in the right environment. With insights that apply on both the personal and institutional level, Collins and Cooke’s discussion will appeal to anyone interested in investing in their own professional development or looking to take their organization’s training solutions to the next level.

Take-Aways

  • There is a difference between acquiring knowledge and developing skills.
  • A good practice environment strikes the right balance between psychological safety and real-world challenges.
  • Exposure to failure in small doses will help people take risks with less fear and adopt a growth mind-set.
