Most of what we’ve learned from our father’s was through watching them; how they spoke, how they treated others, how they worked. We learned far more through observing them than from what they told us to do, far more.

We trusted them, so we watched them and we trusted because we respected them. This is the crux of social learning and it’s similar and yet different in organizations. Here social learning happens through peers and experts not parents. And organizations themselves can be our new guides. They can create the environment for mutual respect to bloom and so that trust emerges, because when we trust, we learn and when we learn we grow. Like we always have, similar but different.
