#LT23UK Opening address - The neuroscience of perception, creativity, bias and learning from @BeauLotto
Straight into inspiring content from @BeauLotto you have no idea how to make decisions if you don’t know what’s coming #LT23UK Image
It’s less about the decision being good or bad and more about how you respond @BeauLotto #LT23UK Image
Epic content coming here #LT23UK ‘expand your degrees of freedom’ ImageImageImageImage
@BeauLotto had us on our feet acting like conductors right up until the final cord, then cut the music! Brilliant, we all wanted more! #LT23UK Image
‘The problem is the world is changing. It’s always going to change, the problem is that most learning strategies miss out the most important step in change. To deviate from knowing’ #LT23UK Image
@BeauLotto calls out that we ‘strive to stand still’ during change #LT23UK Image
So what’s @BeauLotto’s solution? #LT23UK Image
The use of music in this session is so powerful! @BeauLotto crested ‘delusions’ to point out our brains make assumptions and biases based on our past experiences. #LT23UK
Assumptions from business’s that discourages change #LT23UK

Our assumptions keep us alive! Image
Audience in raptures from this awesome speaker @BeauLotto #LT23UK
These assumptions whilst not always bad need to be assessed. We need to be aware of our biases and assumptions so we can drive change #LT23UK Image
‘We colour other people’ #LT23UK we project a meaning onto others

But we don’t know the ‘why’ we’ve assumed it! Image
@BeauLotto’s goal is to increase ‘doubt’ in todays audience at #LT23UK Image
‘Dying is easy, staying alive is tough. Knowing was a good idea because dying was easy!’ We increase certainty by creating more extreme views. The brain seeks agency, you’ll create patterns that don’t exist! Image
@BeauLotto states ‘we don’t have a celebration of understanding’ as we do for knowledge #LT23UK Image
We actively avoid what does not fit our expectations #LT23UK Image
‘You can change’ inspiring from @BeauLotto ‘the brain wants the consequence of the change but not the process’ Image
‘Your brain is changing right now’ it’s evolved to evolved. Image
‘The more complex world, the more complex brain’ #LT23UK Image
‘Thinking is expensive which is why so few people do it’ #LT23UK @BeauLotto
‘The power of ignoring with awareness’ takes work. The best things in life takes energy. Create richness to energize the brain #LT23UK Image
‘Perception under pins everything it means to be human’ @BeauLotto #LT23UK Image
‘Learning is about expanding your perspective of the world’

‘You see meaning of the world - not the world!’ #LT23UK Image
‘Information is meaningless. You are essential to create meaning to information’ #LT23UK
How can we ‘change the meaning’ to change perception? #LT23UK Image
#LT23UK ‘being prepared is a way of being’ Image
@BeauLotto reminds us of the intrinsic reward when we play. We love uncertainty in this context #LT23UK Image
‘Science is nothing but playing with intention’ #LT23UK

‘It begins with awe and wonder’ Image
‘Your more likely to sit with not knowing’ #LT23UK Image
‘Embody this not just for you, but for others too’ #LT23UK

@BeauLotto ‘you will effect the well-being of others’ Image
‘I’m not their boat, I’m their sandbar’ #LT23UK
@BeauLotto asks ‘when can we practice this?’

In moments that matter, during conflict is a good example. We set up conflict to win not learn.

#LT23UK Image
‘When someone feels understood they feel seen’

Listening well is acknowledging assumptions and biases.

Typical behaviors of conflict #LT23UK Image
‘The problem isn’t conflict, it’s how you enter it’ #LT23UK Image
‘Enter conflict with a question’ ‘then iterate to better questions, that’s what science is’ #LT23UK Image
‘Meaning is not inherent in the world. It’s how you look at it. Learning is not what you see, it’s how you look’

#LT23UK Image
Beautiful summary and stunning presentation from @BeauLotto in the opening address of #LT23UK Image

Second session of day 2 at #LT23UK focuses on The Learning Profession #T3S4

Thinking of @DonaldClark slides from yesterday, curious if we’ll see overlap today Image
@lavimariam and @karolinaroz take the stage to lead the discussion on The Learning Profession #T3S4

@lavimariam asks us instantly to reflect on why we’re here and what we want to get from the session.

#LT23UK Image
A personal story from @lavimariam about getting feedback that she’d never be the successor bc she lacked people skills. Then she got a new manager, who wanted to play to Lavinia’s strengths. And she was promoted.

She asked her direct report how she’s doing as a manager… Image

Change Management #T252 up next. Curious how we think about change in a world that’s constantly evolving. On my bingo card for words used to describe the current environment in this session I have ‘BANI’. B:rittle, A:nxious, N:on-linear and I:incomprehensible. #LT23UK
Florence Dambricourt @talking4good steps up first and dives straight into the illusion of managing change.

‘It’s about enabling change’
#T252 #LT23UK Image
Florence speaks of creating space through meaningful conversations. By opening the space you can collect data that informs you on how to make your change a success. This is not about reaching consensus, but you still have created space for others to make changes. #T2S2 #LT23UK Image
