**Important note: to receive the call details, you must** [RSVP using this link](https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUqduiopjMrHdzOgtcF_2S39rLxw5Ym7iFl#/registration) (e.g. RSVP'ing through Meetup won't give you access). Information is flowing faster than ever. We are walking and talking faster than a decade ago. We’re inundated with platforms, blogs, websites, tweets, LinkedIn posts, Youtube videos, online courses etc., etc. But who has time for learning? **The better question is ‘who doesn’t have time for that all-important, strategic, let’s-get-to-the-bottom-of-pressing-social-problems learning’?** Learning is key to your professional and personal success, and carving out time for a brief workshop (that’d be this one) to help you craft a customized learning plan for you and/or your team will not only save you tons of time but make your time more meaningful and make you more likely to reach your goals. Learning plans help you **bridge** between where you are now and where you want to get to. Learning plans help you be **deliberate** about learning; “Learning is not attained by chance, it must be sought for with ardor and attended to with diligence. ―Abigail Adams Learning plans help you to be **proactive** about learning; “In the moment of crisis, the wise build bridges, and the foolish build dams. \~ Nigerian proverb Learning plans help you put learning in **context**: “Knowledge without wisdom is like water in the sand.” \~ Guinean proverb **Suffering** is optional. In this fun, interactive workshop, you’ll learn a Simple (with a capital S) system for identifying your learning needs, how to meet those needs, and all in a way that fits you, your goals, your capacity, and how you learn. **In this free workshop with me on January 15th, [Lee-Anne Ragan](https://rockpaperscissorsinc.com/about/), you’ll learn:** * What a learning plan is and why it’s so important that you and/or your team have one * How to use my simple, interactive worksheet to create a customized learning plan for yourself and/or your team * Why the letter I plays a huge role in your learning plan * How to use my S.A.K.E.s© tool to streamline the process * How to make the learning fit you instead of bending yourself into a pretzel for learning methods that don’t work for you * How to do all of the above in a fun, interactive way (Hint: the Pink Panther just may make an appearance, and there might be a friendly small group competition with a prize) * Gain access to 12+ years of Learning and Development Roundtable resources * Count the workshop towards your annual UN professional development (If you’re a UN staff) (but know that you don’t have to be a UN staff to attend, any and all are welcome) **[RSVP using this link](https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUqduiopjMrHdzOgtcF_2S39rLxw5Ym7iFl#/registration) by January 13th.
