The Experiential Learning
Value Proposition
Your approach to learning influences how you think, work, live and interact with others. Understanding the experiential learning framework and your personal learning style profile will enable you to:
- Make better decisions
- Tackle complex work tasks more quickly and effectively
- Develop and manage high powered teams with diverse learning styles
- Become more innovative and entrepreneurial
- Avoid commonplace work performance and career pitfalls
- Collaborate more effectively with your boss, co-workers and employees
- Become a more intellectually, emotionally and socially competent leader
- Become a better manager by empowering others to continuously improve
- Become a better educator by learning how to connect with a diverse range of students
Educators and trainers improve their skills by learning how to connect with a diverse group of students and use the experiential learning framework for deep learning.
Teams improve their effectiveness, outcomes, and profitability; appreciate deep diversity and inclusion, and minimize interpersonal conflict.
Organizations become more agile, innovative, strategic, and deliberately developmental.

Announcing the NEW Kolb Experiential Learning Profile
Develop learning capacity and unlock potential by providing everyone with a self-reflective tool to help them understand how to learn from experience and their unique approach to learning and living.
Culminating 50 years of research on Experiential Learning Theory, learning styles and learning flexibility, Experience Based Learning Systems, LLC, announces the release of the Kolb Experiential Learning Profile (KELP), available from the Institute for Experiential Learning.
The KELP replaces the Kolb Learning Style Inventory 4.0 (KLSI 4.0) as the most current deliberately developmental approach to increasing learning power, being more effective, and becoming a lifelong learner.
What Is Experiential Learning?
Learning is the primary process by which we navigate life. It is the way we make decisions; solve problems; work on teams; engage with work and colleagues; learn new knowledge, skills and mindsets; and, the way we live, in general.
Yet, few people consider how they learn.
Some 50 years ago, David Kolb identified an ideal process of learning that is probably different than the way you learned in school. By understanding and using this process, people improve their effectiveness and unleash their potential. When teams, organizations and institutions do this, they leverage the power of using a shared language and operating system that acts as a catalyst for learning and development.
What are the benefits of using Experiential Learning as an approach?
For Individuals, experiential learning can help you:
- Increase self-awareness and appreciation of others who are different from you
- Experience greater personal effectiveness, maturity, choice, and flexibility in life – in short, more happiness – and empower you to take charge of your own learning and life
For Teams, experiential learning will:
- Make your team more effective, more profitable, and experience less conflict
- Give your team a shared team process model and leadership that propels success
For Educators, Coaches and Mentors, experiential learning:
- Is a widely recognized, research-based methodology of learning and how people change
- Eliminates blind spots and increases awareness of one’s preferences and approaches and their impact
For Organizations and Institutions, experiential learning:
- Is a shared-process model to learn faster in the volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous context of today’s world
