Action learning is one of the most prominent individual and organisational development approaches used in all parts of the world, including in over 70 member states of the United Nations. From its early beginnings in the 1970s, it has been adopted in private, public and third-sector organisations and has produced several variations. Used for leadership and management development, to support teamwork and problem-solving, and to encourage creative thinking, it can help to develop and enhance the learning capacity for individuals and organisations. Applied as a discrete activity focused on a priority need or on new or changed roles; as a linkage between more formal programs and the workplace or blended with other elements in a program, this book distils current and previous practice and theory to provide an up-to-date guide to action learning. The book will provide readers with an understanding of action learning, including the major elements, the choice of issues, the key skills, the role of the facilitator and applications organisation-wide. It will address such important aspects as how action learning can adapt to different national and regional cultures and how it can be evaluated. It will also offer a range of resources for further and deeper understanding.

Many managers, entrepreneurs as well as researchers have been paying increasing attention to the concept and importance of Organizational Learning (OL) and Learning Organization (LO)in the last few decades. However, it seems that much of the exposition remains at conceptual level. Real life success stories of OL implementation are few and far between. Our idea of the needed OL model was based on the belief that project team and action learning could be integrated into an implementation framework. We called this OL framework Project-based Action Learning or PAL. PAL is the OL vehicle for the LO journey. PAL has been successfully adopted in industrial settings for a decade. PAL is built on the theoretical foundation of action learning, uses clearly defined project goals, project process and team setting to drive both individual as well as team learning in a systematic way. This guidebook is intended for management and practitioners, who are attracted by the promises of LO concept. PAL is the tried and tested OL vehicle for this LO journey. This guidebook gives the step-by-step operational procedures related to the building up of PAL driven OL Program.

Presenting an innovative concept and approach for organization management, this book serves to document an organization’s journey towards the ultimate goal of learning organization. This book also shares the experience on how a OL framework built on established learning theories, could be used effectively, overcoming many of the barriers in a real industrial setting. Utilizing a ready-to-use tool called Project Action Learning (PAL) to analyze real life case studies, the authors introduce a framework that allows teams of people to work and learn over the course of business projects. Equal emphasis is placed on the achievement of pre-set project outcomes and the learning objectives of the participants. In addition, a long term organizational learning strategy is put forward and the necessary supporting infrastructure, in the form of four ‘PAL Pillars’, is described. The concepts and development of the PAL driven Organizational Learning model are inspired by and grounded in, Western and Eastern business philosophies and case studies which offer important insights into the management of organizations who are keen to develop sustainable business practices.
