Action Learning Principles and Strategies for Breakthrough Problem Solving --$tBibliography --$tIndex 330 $aBreakthrough Problem Solving with Action Learning explores why and how action learning groups have been so successful and creative in solving complex problems. The text begins by briefly reviewing the theories that undergird the effectiveness of action learning, philosophically situating readers and pointing them in the direction of related academic works that they may wish to explore. It then turns to stories of how organizations have employed action learning in solving specific, often-encountered business problems. These cases not only serve as real-world models for how action learning can be successfully employed, but also offer inspiration and potential starting points and guidelines for other businesses that face similar problems. The book concludes with a cross-case analysis that pinpoints the ingredients necessary for breakthrough problem solving via action learning. 606 $aActive learning$vCase studies 606 $aActive learning 606 $aOrganizational learning$vCase studies 606 $aOrganizational learning 606 $aProblem solving$vCase studies 606 $aProblem solving 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aActive learning 615 0$aActive learning. 615 0$aOrganizational learning 615 0$aOrganizational learning. 615 0$aProblem solving 615 0$aProblem solving. 676 $a658.4/03 700 $aMarquardt$b Michael J$0909671 701 $aYeo$b Roland K$01048422 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461804903321 996 $aBreakthrough problem solving with action learning$92476712 997 $aUNINA
