  3. Don’t Let Learners Prescribe Their Learning: It’s the learning leaders’ job to choose the correct learning strategy, not the audience.
  4. The Importance of Meaning in the Workplace: To keep up with the changes in the modern workplace, today’s leaders have to provide employees with meaning, freedom and the ability to self-manage.
