When did “learnings” become a word that non–MBAs started using? I don’t think there is another word that fills me with a greater desire to flip the conference room table over and leave the room.
- wwworks 16y agoThanks for your input, which word would you suggest? I'm partly (small part) writing this blog to improve my english. English isn't my mother tongue, and the best way to learn is by doing. :-)
- allenbrunson 16y agohow about just "things I learned." I agree with the other poster, "learnings" sets my teeth on edge.
- wwworks 16y agoOk, thanks. Updated! Don't want to sound too academic. :-)
- allenbrunson 16y ago"learnings" is not "academic," it is ANTI-academic. it's jargon made up by insecure people trying to make themselves sound more important. as a non-native-english speaker, I'm sure it's difficult to determine things like that. practice makes perfect!
- wwworks 16y agoCool, that's good to know!
