Why is it so difficult to start something new and stick with it? How do we gain and maintain momentum? And why do we tire of what we're doing? 

In this week's episode of The Mind Tools L&D Podcast, Ross D and Ross G explore these questions with Smart Growth author and disruption theorist Whitney Johnson.

We discuss:

  • what we mean by 'smart growth'
  • the 'S Curve of Learning' model
  • what L&D teams can do to create an ecosystem where smart growth is possible.
