Introduction to Action Learning
Developing People and Creating Results Simultaneously 
Action Learning is a process that involves a small group working on real issues, taking action, and learning as individuals, as a team, and as an organization. It helps organizations develop creative, flexible and successful strategies to pressing issues.
Action Learning has emerged as a method of choice for global companies, government agencies, and non-profit groups that want to improve quality, cut costs, create new products and services, and change the cultures of their organizations. From Boston to Brazil, from Finland to Tokyo, companies as diverse as Microsoft, Samsung, Dow, GE, Deutsche Bank, Boeing, Sodexho, Novartis, Nokia and many others use Action Learning to solve complex problems, develop leaders, build teams and expand corporate capability.
In this session, we will share how organizations can apply Action Learning to develop their people and cultivate organizational learning. You will also have a chance to experience Action Learning Coaching.
