Subgroup 2: How can we better manage (understand and support) the
learning in the workplace


"

m The variables are very many so there is no easy solution. Vifferent workplaces,
organizations, learning styles, etc.
m LL cannot in the future be dependent on content issues. £e have to spend more time on
how to learn and to be motivated to learn and to grow curiosity
m Cognitive skills are needed.
m Ane of the big issues: a good life for everyone - we have to collectively help to achieve this
goal
m Challenge and opportunity: the primary task for t he companies is to be profitable
m Êndividuals are not similar, some are more willing to learn and invest in professional
development than others
m How do we define the word ͞careerD
m åew thoughts are rising about corporations and banks. The most radical prediction: in next
ten 10 years the shareholder value will not exist anymore (this not shared by the whole
group)
m Everyone have to contribute something to the well being of all
m £e have to go deeper in the self organizing work and groups
@ a need to choose different kind of facilitators from the working process
@ a need to choose technology, the technology will change rapidly
@ £e have to learn this in order to enhance self organized working
@ Facilitators of learning, process, knowledge, ͙
@ åew learning environments will be different as those we have been used today
@ Vistance learning, just in time learning, ͙
@ Example: GE has problem shooters and other new roles needed

Subgroup 3: HOW CAN WE INFLUENCE BEST (FROM OUR POSITIONS) THAT

THE PROFESISONALS LEAVING UNIVERSITIES HAVE A LIFELONG LEARNING
PASSION
åelson Baker, Miika Lipiäinen, Christa Uusi-Rauva, Markku Markkula

Vo we focus on 1) knowledge professionals, or 2) all people (benchmark Finland as a country of effective

social mobility).

åow with this sub-group session we focus on knowledge professionals. And the question, how to stimulate,
motivate and prepare university students to have a motivation and means to lifelong learning LLL and to
become lifelong learners? £e want to see this on a broader scale: £hat is important for LLL? How to
motivate, how to work and learn faster and faster? How to have learning as an essential part of work?

Learning and work review needs to be analytically seen with respect to an outcome through three phases:
motivation, process, end product
 m you need to have passion in every phase,
m self-awareness and self-confidence and motivation to learn & work in a combined manner,
m starting question: do you mean individual or organizational passion, or your role in society,
m you need to answer the question Dwhat is your/our aimD: collect info or do something with the info,
create knowledge in general or for specific purpose, increase the meaning of our life,
m access to information is cheap, access to knowledge co-creation process is more expensive,
m social media is important, but is not the main issue, it might a driver of change,
m deeper understanding of knowledge creation and knowledge co-creation is the essential question,

How much new knowledge or information do Ê need? Ê am now using xx% of the knowledge Ê already have.

m in lifelong learning we should courage people to find the kind of work they are satisfied,
m mobility: one way or another, how much and what way during your during your studies,
m which are the motivation killers, especially the ones we should avoid,
m which are the ways and methods to increase motivation and what way to use them,
m are all of these effective motivational ways expensive,
m how to provide motivation understanding and operational instruments for parents, so that they
would get their children to become lifelong learners,
m the role of school in the process towards learning-to-learn
m are we really encouraging teaching, what are our university values and measuring/incentives
system

How can we create passion to our sub-group? And use that within ACSÊ? And use that on a broader scale
within universities?

Are there enough sufficient conditions and positive factors to form sub-groups to be motivated to work on
after the Camp?

£e need several sub-groups? And to have a social perspective on the process itself.

£ho is the owner? Ês the main question, who should pay?

Value proposition? £hat way to organize ACSÊ for 500 people? Vifferent options:

O Globally distributed facilitators?

O Virtual processes?
O High-level documentation to motivate people to come and work together?

Vuring the ACSÊ 1st day we need to get people to get motivated through practical working from the very
beginning.

Vocumentation process to be effective, not to try to cover everything. Ar maybe to spend

åelson:

O Process is important, Ê would like to use the written document to create a few new deeper ideas to
contribute with the others in the co-creation process to follow.
