A wonderfully entertaining hour of Richard Moore the Political Director in the FCDO in conversation with his father John Moore. John started his 44 year career with the Foreign Office in 1945, age 16. With 75 years of service between them, they had so many fascinating stories!
One of our key messages at the FCDO's International Academy is that learning must be a part of our everyday work. 'Learning in the flow of work' as Josh Bersin puts it. Here's a great article from HBR with some ideas on how you can do this. https://t.co/vlAM4ixDvg #learnatwork
