Description

Action Learning for Developing Leaders and Organizations: A Strategic Approach to Organizational Change. In today's fast-paced business environment, leaders need innovative tools to stay ahead. Action Learning (AL) has emerged as a key training and problem-solving tool for companies worldwide. This process involves small groups solving real organizational problems while focusing on how their learning can benefit individuals, groups, and the organization as a whole. This book demonstrates how AL can be introduced, implemented, and sustained in any type or size of organization using six key components: a diverse group, an urgent task or problem, a question-driven communication process, implementation of action strategies, a commitment to learning, and an AL team coach. With practical business case examples, you'll see the power of AL in developing leaders, solving problems, building teams, and transforming organizations.
