Demonstrating curiosity and making the most of opportunities to learn, improve and innovate
Commitment to continued learning and development is a core element of professionalism and is, therefore, critical for all people professionals. This behaviour focuses on how we as people professionals ensure our own and others’ continuing professional development.
Alongside workplace learning and development in our roles, we also need to connect with – and contribute to – the wider people profession, and be curious about external practices and trends to inform our own learning.
Connected to this is the importance of seeking opportunities to test new ways of doing things and new approaches to improve and innovate in our work.
