Can I ask to job shadow a colleague to learn new skills?
Yes, job shadowing is a great way to learn new skills, and many employers support this initiative.
Job shadowing involves observing a colleague in a different role to learn new skills and gain insight into their job responsibilities. If you're interested in expanding your skill set or exploring a different career path within the company, job shadowing can be an excellent opportunity. Approach your manager or HR with a plan for who you'd like to shadow and how it aligns with your career goals. Highlight how the experience can help you grow in your current role and add value to the company.
