Preparing for the Learning Organization
In: Journal of management education: the official publication of the Organizational Behavior Teaching Society, Band 23, Heft 5, S. 489-508
Abstract
This article explores ways to increase individuals' capacities to engage in the activities of a learning organization. A general education seminar is analyzed as a case example of teaching that follows William Perry's theory of intellectual and ethical development. First, the learning organization is defined. Second, organizational learning is linked to theories of individual learning. How the seminar was conducted is discussed, and the implications of the experience are explored in relation to management education. The article concludes with a plea for greater integration of general education objectives and management education objectives in light of efforts to change organizational behavior.
