Here’s another conceptual framework to help you reflect and think about learning. When we think about how our context, especially our social context, can influence how we learn, one conclusion we might come to is that at times we behave as either followers or leaders. In their work on reflective learning, Kegan and Lahey describe a developmental process in terms of leadership. Consider how this model can apply to you, especially you as a “self-transforming mind”.
