This document summarizes a presentation on a non-traditional approach to enterprise learning using learning circles. It discusses how formal learning is often done out of context and wasted. It proposes that learning circles, which are informal peer-led groups that meet regularly to learn, discuss, and share experiences, are better suited to today's learning challenges. The presentation provides examples of how learning circles work and the benefits they can provide in helping people apply learning to their daily work. It acknowledges contributions from several learning experts and advocates in developing the presented ideas.
