Personal and professional growth go hand-in-hand - as you build one, you build the other; ignore one and it will always be slowing down the other. Business leaders, coaches, philosophers all point towards the same knowledge - Work on yourself and everything around you changes.
That’s exactly why we set up the “webinars” space in Learning Pioneers - to amplify your personal and professional growth in tandem with low time investment and high impact.
“Live” webinars run once every six weeks. This gives you plenty of time to reflect on, refer back to and embed the ideas from each webinar. It also allows you time to engage with and make links to the webinar content already available.
Each year, we choose a new focus for our series of webinars - in 2023, we combined knowledge from business leaders, personal growth experts and philosophers to amplify our personal growth; exploring powerful habit building, setting clear boundaries and developing next level communication skills - Imagine your life with all of these in place - not a second of time lost, no longer saying “yes” to requests you really wanted to say “no” to; energised, focused and, happy.
This year, we are focusing on pulling together all of our learning from Learning Pioneers thought leaders so far (that’s a lot of learning!) and connecting this learning with each of the Design Principles in the Learning Power Approach.
We vary times of webinars to include all time zones. Don’t worry if you can’t make the “live” webinar; they’re all recorded and are immediately available as soon as you sign in to our community.
This introductory webinar revisits the three main frameworks of the LPA so you are clear on what you are working from. You will have the opportunity to reflect on strengths and next steps in your practice and learn from new examples bringing the frameworks to life.

Expanding from the ideas in “Powering up Children” and “Powering up Students”, we will explore how to set up your classroom environment to amplify learning and align with your values and ethos. We will draw on learning from our inquiry into “Habitats for Learning” with Kath Murdoch and Anne van Dam. You will leave with inspiration and a plan to set up your LPA classroom.
How can we move from a surface level language for learning to deep, embedded fluency? In this webinar we will explore new Learnish we have developed over the years in Learning Pioneers and the use and application of Thinking Routines for powerful, nuanced discussions in your classrooms and staff meetings.
Collaboration and conversation are both highly impactful Design Principles for current learning in classrooms and the future our students will face. Applying John Hattie’s meta-research, learning from our inquiry into what education might look like in 2030 with Yong Zhao and Valerie Hannon and learning from our community, we will dive more deeply into this Design Principle.
The key to challenging learning is to guide children to relish challenge and seek it out. This is no mean feat! In this webinar we will explore how to adjust every aspect of learning so that children are hungry for challenge and able to persevere when the going gets tough.
A classroom of independent, self-driven learners results in flow, better problem-solving skills and a more connected classroom. But how do we set that up and keep the momentum of that ethos going? What are we unwittingly putting place that is preventing this independence? In this webinar, we will dive deeper into how to curate a classroom of independent learners.
Pulling together learning from James Nottingham, Trevor MacKenzie and Ron Berger from our “live” events and inquiries, we will explore how to give and receive effective feedback and develop beautiful work over time.
Our 2023 webinars focused on amplifying our personal growth. Learning from business leaders, world-renowned personal growth specialists and philosophers, we pulled together thinking in these key areas:
Habit-building is the foundation of reaching our dreams and goals; they are also the foundation of wellness - through building habits that are conducive to staying well (such as buying and eatiny healthy nutritious meals and prioritising exercise), we build our resilience and are much less likely to get sick. Without strong habits, our energy and time leak away and we find ourselves struggling to use our time effectively, reach our goals and stay well. Nip time wastage in the bud with this 40-minute webinar packed with key ways to build and break habits.
Do you find yourself saying “yes” to requests at work, when you really should have said “no”? I our stretched educational systems, we often find ourselves stretched to the limit and beyond and requests are still made of us. What if it didn’t have to be this way? What if we could set clear boundaries with love, without letting our colleagues or ourselves down in the process? That is what this 40-minute webinar is about …
Have you ever been in the situation when you think you’ve conveyed a clear message but something completely different to what you had imagined happens as a result? Or you’re in a challenging meeting with a parent, colleague, team member and the well-intentioned conversation ends up with people’s backs up? Taking inspiration from our team coach, James Aidoo and seminal texts like “Non-violent communication”, this webinar explores how to convey messages clearly, how to better develop listening skills and how to check in with others with empathy.
No matter where we are in life and what we are achieving, fear often gets a grip and holds us back from taking that step which will have a positive impact on our growth and those around us. Here’s the kicker - fear is never going to go away - but our ability to recognise it for what it is when it rears its ugly head and to have strategies to move through and past it will enable us to step through our fears and into our growth.
Each of these webinars are packed with wisdom. By the end of engaging with them, you will have a plethora of strategies and the motivation to stay energised, focused and well! Now, if that’s not well-spent time, I don’t know what is!
