95: Bringing Real-Life Learning to the Workplace with Caner Akova
In this episode, I chat with my new L&D pal, Caner Akova, about how we learn in real life, how we can bring some of those best practices into workplace learning, and why it isn't happening more often.
Caner is an L&D expert with global experience in higher education and multinational corporations and he’s here to shake things up.
He’s passionate about cutting through the fluff, and uses real life learning to make workplace learning actually work.
He likes tackling the brutal truths about L&D, delivering practical, no-nonsense solutions that work without the need to invest in a ton of different software and hardware.

Caner's advice for those who want to start making changes to learning at their organizations:
- Watch how the people (and pets) around you are learning in real life.
- Make one small change at your workplace (without asking for permission).
- Assess the results, and add more changes or adjust accordingly.
