Product Description
Product Description
Learning is increasingly seen as crucial to the success of organisations but many studies of the subject offer very little empirical evidence to substantiate this. Based upon in-depth research, including over seventy interviews with managers and employees, Organisational Learning and Effectiveness is an original and comprehensive analysis of learning organisations. Contents include:
* detailed case studies of five major international companies: Coca-Cola and Schweppes Beverages, 3M, Siebe, Mayflower and Morgan Crucible
* the intellectual origins of organisational learning
* best practice in organisational learning
* the importance of leadership roles and skills
*a critical examination of the usefulness and relevance of organisational learning and effectiveness.
Integrating management theory and practice, this volume is an extremely valuable resource for all those with an interest in organisational behaviour and human resource development.

Format:Paperback
I found this to be both interesting and stimulating throughout. I was particularly impressed by teh way in which the author had taken his in-depth knowledge of the subject and presented it in an accessible manner. The case studies of successful organisations really brought to life some of these very pertinent issues. It would be very useful for students and business practitioners dealing with any issues involving learning in the workplace.
