Leap Experiences
Introduction
In the early 1990s, the concept of a "leap experience" emerged, describing how placing high-potential individuals in challenging work assignments can accelerate their learning curve. These tasks push them beyond their comfort zones, fostering rapid and impactful learning.Understanding Leap Experiences
A leap experience is akin to tossing a learner into the deep end. While it's a high-risk learning strategy, it's often effective. Consider teaching someone to drive by merely placing them behind the wheel. Although risky, practice and experience are crucial for competence.Balancing Risk and Learning
In driving, a balanced approach involves theory tests, hazard perception assessments, and supervised practice with an experienced driver or instructor. Even after passing a driving test, new drivers need more practice to become truly competent. Scenarios like driving on motorways or in adverse conditions offer mini leap experiences, promoting rapid learning.The LEAP Framework
The term LEAP can be broken down into an acronym: Learn, Experience, Apply, Perform.- Learn: Provide the necessary knowledge and skills.
- Experience: Offer practice opportunities, both in safe environments and more challenging situations.
- Apply: Extend practice to varied real-world scenarios, ideally unsupervised but supported by previous coaching.
- Perform: Achieve competence, functioning independently.
Applying the LEAP Framework
At the Experiential Learning Centre, we integrate LEAP into our training. We focus on knowledge transfer early on and engage participants in simulations and coached activities. Finally, we guide them to apply their learning in the workplace, fostering independence and competency.Challenges and Solutions
Managers often struggle to create effective leap experiences without jeopardizing current performance. While traditional training courses are common, they pose challenges in transferring classroom learning to the workplace. Coaching upon return is ideal, but not always feasible.Experiential Training as a Solution
When time or coaching skills are limited, experiential training programs provide a safe alternative. Well-designed courses offer the benefits of leap experiences without the associated risks, enabling rapid and applicable learning.Conclusion
Leap experiences, guided by the LEAP methodology, represent an effective approach to learning. By incorporating these strategies, individuals and organizations can achieve powerful, real-world results and growth.You can find the original non-AI version of this article here: Leap Experiences.
