Description
Everything you need to know to become a limitless learner and stay relevant and resilient in your career.
We used to go to work to learn to do the job. Now learning IS the job.
Whatever your career, staying relevant and adaptable is essential to your success. And your unexpected role model for learning at work? A lobster.
In Learn Like a Lobster, Sunday Times bestselling authors Helen Tupper and Sarah Ellis explore the unexpected parallels between lobsters and lifelong learning-
* Lobsters never stop growing - and neither should you
* Lobsters grow through hard moments - use your challenges to uncover new learning
* Lobsters fuel their own growth - don't wait to be taught, create your own opportunities to learn
Learn Like a Lobster shows how to make learning an easy and energising part of every working day. It's a must-read for anyone who wants to develop in their career in a way that feels meaningful and motivating.
Whether you are someone who is ambitious to grow or you're not sure about where to start, Learn Like a Lobster offers the practical skills, tools and motivation you need for career progression and fulfilment.
Because when we learn, we grow.
