With the acceleration of digital and information technologies, older models of education as a pathway to knowledge mastery and skill proficiency are proving ineffective. Moreover, the Internet of Things and the advent of machine learning are blurring the cognitive capacities of humans and machines. Increasingly, thought leaders are pointing to a different model of human learning, one that emphasizes the ability to adapt, think and apply learning to quickly changing challenges. In this workshop, we will distill the research on learning agility, creativity and a related idea of cognitive flexibility, and connect with leadership principles, to build and apply a new model of leadership that combines learning and leading agility in the face of changing relationships between humans, machines and knowledge.
