POLYGAMY OR MONOGAMY?
Where do your ideas come from?
Polygamy or Monogamy: That’s a clickbait title but with reason.
Given a choice, would you be monogamous or polygamous?
Your mind is thinking about society, culture, and “what will people think/say”. It is natural to think so.
Ask a management consultant and the answer is bound to be “It depends”!
This is the ninth in my Quad series on #AlternateLearning.
When regular physical-meet classes were on, we had a fixed set of coaches to train with. In the new normal of a virtual Zoom world, Quad came up with a wider permutation excel set. I could pick and choose the session times, the type of workout, and the coaches I could work out with. That’s the polygamy I am referring to, o dirty minds!
Each coach has a different style. Some explain more, some demonstrate, some form-correct on the fly. Some push push push hard!
As a learner, there is so much to learn from different coaches, varied styles. The wider schedule helps to figure out which coach-workout-time combination works best for my body. Choices yes, but not too many. Each of us has our favourite coach, but use this opportunity to expand our experience — and network!
In business, how varied is your learning experience? Is it monogamous, from a single source? Or are we tapping into videos, books, podcasts, speeches, people, and stories?
Ideas come from many sources, but only to the mind prepared to receive them. And the body that is prepared to act on these ideas. All towards a set objective of being one step better today than yesterday.
The coaches teach new moves that you can combine. Your idea sources help you build a huge bank from which you bring our newer combinations.
What are you doing today to have a polygamous learning relationship?
One to many, many to one
Life is all about making learning fun.
