Perceptual Style and Learning
Unlock Your Unique Path to Growth
Your approach to learning is as unique as your fingerprint, shaped by how you naturally perceive the world.
Understanding your Perceptual Style can help you tap into your innate learning strengths, making personal and professional growth more effective and fulfilling.
Most of us take the process of learning for granted, assuming it's something that just happens. But learning is actually a skill we develop over time.
The real question is: did you develop your learning skills by mimicking what others told you to do, or by tapping into your natural strengths?
When you align the way you learn with how you make meaning and take action in the world, growth becomes not just easier but more impactful.
Why Understanding Learning Matters
As adults, learning shifts from being an obligation to a choice.
Unlike childhood learning, which is often structured and externally driven, adult learning is self-directed and purpose-driven.
Whether it’s for career advancement, personal development, or acquiring new skills, the way you approach learning can make or break the experience.
Why is this important? Because knowing how you learn best:
-
Enhances retention and understanding.
-
Makes learning enjoyable and less of a chore.
-
Increases motivation and engagement.
-
Helps you apply new knowledge more effectively.
When learning aligns with your natural preferences, it becomes an empowering journey rather than a frustrating task.
The Perceptual Style Difference
Perceptual Style Theory™, developed by Lynda-Ross Vega, and Gary M. Jordan, PhD, identifies six distinct ways people perceive the world. These Perceptual Styles influence not just how you interact with others but also how you absorb, process, and retain information.
Your Perceptual Style shapes:
-
How you prefer information to be presented.
-
The environments where you learn best.
-
The types of activities that boost your understanding..
Recognizing these differences helps you embrace your natural learning style instead of struggling with methods that don’t fit.
