Introduction.引言
在哈佛商业评论看到的一篇文章，我个人认为，文章中提到的各种细节能帮助个人在这个充满挑战的时代找到自己的定位，受限于个人职业经验，我想日后我会完善我对这篇深刻更加的感悟。先简单贴在我的博客中！原文链接：Make Learning a Part of Your Daily Routine (hbr.org)
Summary.总结
In our increasingly “squiggly（波浪形，弯曲的）” careers, where people change roles more frequently and fluidly and develop in different directions, the ability to unlearn, learn, and relearn is vital for long-term success. （在我们日益“弯曲”的职业生涯中，人们更频繁/更流畅地转换角色，并向不同的方向发展，忘却/学习和重新学习的能力对于长期成功至关重要）It helps us increase our readiness（准备） for the opportunities that change presents and our resilience （适应能力）to the inevitable challenges we’ll experience along the way.（它帮助我们提高对变化带来的机遇的准备，以及我们对在此过程中将遇到的不可避免的挑战的适应能力）
Adaptive and proactive（主动型） learners are highly prized assets(非常宝贵的资产) for organizations, and investing in learning creates long-term dividends （长期红利）for our career development. Based on their experience designing and delivering career development training for over 50,000 people worldwide, the authors present several techniques and tools to help you make learning part of your day-to-day development.

Our capacity for learning is becoming the currency we trade on in our careers. Where we once went to work to learn to do a job, learning now is the job. Adaptive and proactive learners are highly prized assets for organizations, and when we invest in our learning, we create long-term dividends for our career development.
Reid Hoffman, the founder of LinkedIn, shared that when assessing founders of potential investments（评估潜在的投资者）, he looks for individuals who have an “infinite learning curve”（无限的学习曲线）: someone who is constantly learning, and quickly. Satya Nadella, the CEO of Microsoft, echoed （回应）the importance of learning when he said, “The learn-it-all will always do better than the know-it all.”（无所不学的人会比无所不知的人做的更好）
However, it’s not as simple as acquiring new knowledge. In our increasingly “squiggly” careers, where people change roles more frequently and fluidly and develop in different directions, the ability to unlearn, learn, and relearn is vital for long-term success. Based on our experience designing and delivering career development training for over 50,000 people worldwide, working with organizations including Virgin, Unilever, and Microsoft, we’ve identified several techniques and tools to help you make learning part of your day-to-day development.
Learning
Since we spend so much of our time, energy, and efforts at our day jobs, they provide the most significant opportunities for learning. The challenge is that we don’t invest intentionally （刻意投资）in everyday development — we’re so busy with tasks and getting the job done that there’s no space left for anything else. Deprioritizing our development is a risky career strategy because it reduces our resilience and ability to respond to the changes happening around us. Here are three ways to take ownership of your learning at work.
如何掌握学习的主动权，将自我发展放于首位
Learn from others 向他人学习
The people you spend time with are a significant source of knowledge. Creating a diverse learning community （多元化学习社区）will offer you new perspectives and reduce the risk that you’ll end up in an echo chamber.（接触相对同质化的人群和信息，听到相似的信息评论，窄化自己的眼界）
Set a goal of having one curiosity coffee each month, virtually（虚拟的） or in person, with someone you haven’t met before. This could be someone in a different department who could help you view your organization through a new lens（新的视角） or someone in your profession at another company who could broaden your knowledge. You can extend your curiosity even further by ending each conversation with the question: “Is there anyone else you think it would be useful for me to connect with?”（你认为还有其他人对我有用么） Not only does this create the chance for new connections, but you might also benefit from a direct introduction.
一杯”好奇“咖啡，这个活动很有意义，通过某项活动链接他人，可以是不同部门的人，不同职业的人！
Experiment（对你的工作内容 细节进行调整）
Experiments help you test, learn, and adapt along the way. There are endless ways you can experiment at work — for example, using different tools to increase the interactivity of your virtual presentations, exploring the impact of camera-on versus camera-off meetings, switching from video to phone calls, or even trying out new negotiation tactics.
For an experiment to be effective, it needs to be a conscious choice and labeled as an opportunity for learning. Keep a learn-it-all log where you track the experiments you’re running and what you’re learning along the way. It’s important to remember that you should expect some experiments to fail, as that’s the nature of exploring the unknown.探索未知的本质——有一些实验你会失败
有意识的选择进行实验，意识其所在的学习机会，记录跟踪你工作试验的内容，复盘思考
Create a collective curriculum（创建集体课程）
In a squiggly career, everyone’s a learner and everyone’s a teacher. As a team, consider how you can create a collective curriculum where you’re learning from and with each other. We’ve seen organizations effectively use skills swaps where individuals share one skill they’re happy to help other people learn. This could look like a creative problem-solver offering to share the processes and tools they find most helpful, or someone who has expertise in coding running beginner lunch-and-learn sessions. Skills swaps are a good example of democratized development where everyone has something to contribute and is learning continually.大型组织中与不同人进行技能交换
Unlearning 忘却
Unlearning means letting go of the safe and familiar and replacing it with something new and unknown. （放弃安全和熟悉的东西，用新的和未知的东西去取代它）Skills and behaviors that helped you get to where you are can actually hold you back from getting to where you want to be.（帮助你上位的技术和习惯并不能帮助你达到你想要去的位置上） For example, a leader might need to unlearn their default of always being the person who speaks first in meetings. Or a new manager might need to unlearn always saying “yes” as their workload increases.
During the pandemic, we were all forced to unlearn some aspects of our lives, like how we collaborated on work or what school looked like for our kids. Unlearning feels uncomfortable, but the past couple of years have reminded us how adaptable we can be. Here are three ways to make unlearning an active part of how you work.
将自己放在不舒适的区域，去看自己的适应能力
Connect with challengers 与挑战者建立联系
We unlearn when we look at a problem or opportunity through a new lens.当我们通过新视角看待问题或机会时 This is more likely to happen if we’re spending time with people who challenge us and think differently than we do. The purpose of connecting with challengers is not to agree or debate but to listen and consider: What can I learn from this person?倾听和思考，我能从这个人身上学到什么？
Seek out people who have an opposite experience from you in some way. For example, if you’re in a large organization, find someone who has only ever worked for themselves. If you have 25 years of experience, find someone just starting out. People who have made different choices and have different areas of expertise than you are a good place to discover a new source of challenge. Asking people, “How would you approach this challenge?” （你如何应对这个挑战）or “What has your experience of this situation been?”（你对这种情况有什么经验） is a good way to explore an alternative point of view.
寻找在某种程度上与你有相反经历的人——不同专业领域做出不同选择
Identify habits and hold backs 识别习惯并有所保留
We all have habits that helped us get to where we are today. However, habits can create blind spots that stop us from seeing different ways of doing things or new approaches to try out. Our brains use habits to create mental shortcuts （心理捷径）that might make us miss out on opportunities to reflect on and unlearn our automatic responses.
习惯可能会阻止我们做不同事情的方式或尝试新的方法。去除坏的旧有的习惯和路径依赖，养成新的习惯
Create a habit tracker by writing down all the actions and activities you do by default over the course of a week. Pick three habits to consciously unlearn and try out a new way of working. For example, if you habitually set up meetings, see what happens when you leave it to someone else. If you habitually problem solve, try out asking for other people’s perspectives first. Testing your habits helps increase your awareness of your own actions.
制定一个习惯跟踪器，在这一周默认执行的所有操作和活动！有意识的摒弃三个习惯并尝试一种新的工作方式。“
测试你的习惯有助于提高你对自己行为的认识，这句话其实不理解了
Ask propelling questions 提出推动性问题
Propelling questions reset our status quo and encourage us to explore different ways of doing things. They often start with: How might we? How could I? What would happen if? These questions are designed to prevent our existing knowledge from limiting our ability to imagine new possibilities. They fast-forward us into the future and prompt positive action in the present.
To put propelling questions into practice, it’s helpful to pair up with someone else and take turns asking and answering questions. These five peer-to-peer propelling questions can get you started:
重置你的现状，并鼓励探索不同的做事方式。
这些问题旨在防止我们现有的知识限制我们想象新可能性的能力。
快速推进未来，在当下采取积极行动。
1. Imagine it’s 2030. What three significant changes have happened in your industry? 未来行业的三个重大变化？
2. How might you divide your role between you and a robot?
3. Which of your strengths would be most useful if your organization doubled in size?
4. How could you transfer your talents if your industry disappeared overnight?
5. If you were rebuilding this business tomorrow, what would you do differently?
Relearning 重新学习
Relearning is recognizing that how we apply our strengths is always changing and that our potential is always a work in progress. We need to regularly reassess our abilities and how they need to be adapted for our current context.（我们需要定期重新评估我们的能力，以及它们需要如何适应我们当前的状况） For example, collaboration remains as important as ever, but maybe you’re relearning how to do it in a hybrid world of work. Or maybe you’ve made a career change and you’re relearning what it looks like to transfer your talents to a new setting. Here are three ways to use relearning to stay nimble （敏捷）in the face of change.重新学习在面对变化时保持敏捷
Stretch your strengths 发挥优势
One of the ways to make your strengths stronger is to use them in as many different situations as possible. If you become too comfortable applying them in the same way, your development stalls. Strengths solving involves relearning how to use your strengths to offer support and solve problems outside of your day-to-day work. This could be in your networks, organizations you volunteer for, or even side projects you’re involved in. For example, one of our workshop participants is a commercial marketing director who applies her creativity not only in her day job, but also in the successful brownie business she started during lockdown.
将你的能力优势运用到除了工作以外的场景
Get fresh-eyed feedback 得到新鲜的反馈
Looking at your skills from someone else’s perspective will help you identify opportunities to relearn. Asking for feedback can help open your eyes to your development blind spots and take back control of your growth. When your objective is to relearn, we find that presenting people with even-better questions works particularly well to provide them with the safety to share candid feedback. For example: How could I make my presentations even better? How could I make our team meetings even better? What’s one way I could do an even better job of progressing my performance?
Relearn resilience 重新学习的韧性
Relearning takes resilience（韧性）, and if you feel pessimistic（悲观） about the progress you’re making, you might be tempted to give up. Refocusing on what’s working well can help you continue to move forward.重新关注运作良好的方法可以帮助您继续前进
Try writing down three very small successes at the end of each day for two weeks. Your successes can come from your personal or professional life, and though it can be hard to spot them at first, the more you do this, the easier it gets. A very small success could include asking one person for feedback, helping a colleague prepare for a presentation, or even encouraging your toddler to eat a vegetable! At the end of two weeks, you’ll have 42 very small successes, creating the motivation and momentum to continue investing in your development, even when it feels hard.
We can’t predict how our careers will develop or what the world of work will look like in the future. Investing in our ability to learn, unlearn, and relearn helps us increase our readiness for the opportunities that change presents and our resilience to the inevitable challenges we’ll experience along the way.
我们无法预测我们的职业将如何发展，也无法预测未来的工作世界会是什么样子。投资于我们学习、忘却和重新学习的能力有助于我们提高对变化带来的机遇的准备，以及我们对在此过程中将遇到的不可避免的挑战的适应能力。
