Have you ever paused to reflect on the critical moments of your life and realized their impact on your own trajectory and others' lives?
In this special episode of Chain of Learning, I welcome back Isao Yoshino as we celebrate our decade-long partnership and the anniversary of our book "Learning to Lead, Leading to Learn." Together, we discuss the power of hansei—reflection—as the cornerstone of learning and wisdom.
We reflect on the journey of writing the book, the strength of our partnership, and the importance of asking the right questions. Mr. Yoshino shares how he continues to learn and grow from the book's lessons while uncovering the profound impact of reflection on his personal and professional development.
Join us as we explore practical ways to develop the habit of reflection, empowering you to gain new perspectives and insights.
Because remember, reflection is the crucial link in your chain of learning, guiding you toward continuous improvement and deeper wisdom.
