The case

Why we use it

To develop skills, classical learning as pure knowledge transfer, as practiced in most schools today, is not effective and ultimately insufficient. Learning must be complemented with practical experience and application. This on-the-job training must be integrated into the organization to enable and support its growth.

The mechanics

How It Works

In alternating steps, learning and application in everyday life and reflecting on the experience occur. Through immediate application and mutual reflection in learning pairs, we manifest the experience and thus enable the long-term and sustainable development of skills. This approach extends the learning success for the colleagues and leads to a joyful evolvement of further skills.

The purpose

What is the goal of the model?

Furthering knowledge and application. Organizations need a structure to acquire additional capabilities quickly and inexpensively. Applying collegial learning, allows to turn away from the classical and very expensive school model and integrate the organic development into the organization.

Beyond the download

Use this model in Axibra, not only in a slide deck

The PDF is yours to keep. But a model changes something only when it touches the work — and that is what Axibra does with it. The model becomes the structure your decisions are made in, and every outcome stays traceable back to the input it came from.

In practice

Where this model does its work

For years we applied this model by hand, in client engagements. It now runs inside Axibra.

Culture and organization

Culture is the first reason transformations fail. Axibra keeps the organizational side of a decision in view instead of leaving it to chance.

From here on

Need help putting this to work in your organization?

Axibra is where these models run. It carries a decision through to the work that follows it, and keeps every result traceable back to the input it came from. If you would rather start with a conversation, we are one call away.

Strategy does not fail in the thinking. It fails in the handover.
