Action Learning: Developing Managers with a Bottom‐line Pay‐back
Abstract
Describes a management development programme which has evolved to give middle and upper managers a “bird′s eye view” of their own organization as a total enterprise. Completed over ten to 12 months, the course employs a variety of action learning techniques including a pre‐course workbook (which can only be completed by interviewing key executives in the organization), syndicate teams, a week‐long residential workshop and project teams assigned to complete real‐life projects within the organization with recommendations presented to a panel of top executives.
