為自己安排學習成長的機會

許多職場人，包含領導主管們，都會感覺他們很少有機會去學習成長。

事實上，學習成長有兩個基本的途徑：一是自我學習，自我突破，也就是創新。 二是向外學習。今天我們先談如何為自己安排向外學習的機會。

向外學習。如果你有足夠的企圖心，但是你現有的工作崗位很難提供給你學習成長的機會，那麼，你可以考慮接下跨部門合作的項目，或是更高部門層級的項目，或是需要不同專業能力的項目。更大的視野、新鮮的技能，以及與更多不同的人之間的互動合作，能夠讓你抓住真正有價值的新知識、新技能，與新解決問題的方法。

如果一時沒有這樣的項目，那麼，你可以選擇參加企業外的組織活動，去學習新的技能，并因此而豐富你的個人履歷。例如，你可以去做成人教育、為兒童基金會募款，或是參加可以有不同成員參加的組織，例如教會活動、學校家長會，等等。或是，你可以到網上博客寫作，貢獻你的專業心得，并因而認識其他同行專家，或是願意和你交流分享的其他行業的朋友。他們可以告訴你不同的觀點。

參加這些外部活動，不僅可以豐富你的知識，認識優秀的新朋友，更可以因此提高了你的知名度、榮譽，并有機會為你的企業發展出新的發展機會。

我們改天再談自我學習，發展創新的方式。

Arrange opportunities for learning and growth for yourself

Many professionals, including leaders, feel that they have few opportunities to learn and grow.

In fact, there are two basic ways of learning and growth: self-learning, self-breakthrough, that is, innovation. The second is to learn from the outside world. Today, let's talk about how we can arrange opportunities for ourselves to learn from the outside world.

Learn from outside. If you are ambitious enough, but your current position is difficult to provide you with opportunities for learning and growth, then you can consider taking on projects that are interdepartmental, or at a higher departmental level, or that require different professional competencies. Greater horizons, new skills, and interaction and cooperation with more and more different people will enable you to grasp new knowledge, skills and solutions that are truly valuable.

If there is no such project at the moment, then you can choose to participate in organizational activities outside the enterprise to learn new skills and thus enrich your personal experience. For example, you can do adult education, raise money for UNICEF, or participate in organizations with different members, such as church activities, school parents'meetings, and so on. Or, you can write online blogs, contribute your professional experience, and thus meet other peer experts, or friends from other industries who are willing to share with you. They can tell you different opinions.

Participating in these external activities can not only enrich your knowledge and make good new friends, but also enhance your popularity and honor, and have the opportunity to develop new opportunities for your business.

We will talk about self-learning and developing innovative ways another day.
