Learning from each other

Just talking... just sitting at BK (not eating there, just sitting) enjoying the air-con. Ana, Jin and I started talking about this and that. About life and work and things.

At the end of the night Jin said we should share more often about what we're doing and learning at work. At first, it seemed a bit out of the ordinary but then it made more sense as I thought about it on the bus. During our conversations we learnt more about what each other did in our own department - we don't work in the same function with the same managers. We shared interesting facts, talked about how we can improve things. Gave ideas and insights.

The more you talk and share, the more you learn from each other. Duh! It's common sense right? But how many of us actually take that time out to share and learn about what's going on with someone else's work/life? We just assume we know, we just assume they are busy. They assume you just don't care. Interns, AIESECers, AIESEC interns.
