– Peter Senge
In order to be a learning organization there must be two conditions present…
Design the organization (structure, processes, & tools) to match the intended or desired outcomes.
Recognize when the direction of the organization is different from the desired outcome and follow the necessary steps to correct this mismatch.
Learning Organization

How do we put them into
action?
Shared Vision: What do we want to create together?
Mental Models: beliefs, values, mind-sets and assumptions that determine the way people think and act.
Personal Mastery: how much we know about ourselves and the impact our behavior has on others.
Team Learning: happens when teams start ‘thinking together’ - sharing their experience, insights, knowledge and skills with each other about how to do things better.
Systems Thinking: is a framework for seeing inter-relationships that underlie complex situations and interactions
