Quantum Learning: New Ways of Developing People in Organisations

2017 | Business & Finance

In the field of organisational learning a significant gap between academia and practical reality persists; advances in psychology and neuroscience research have yet to make an impression beyond the academy. Yet right now in organisations learning is vital to survive and excel. This is the contention of Hilarie Owen in The Eagle and the Chicken: A New Paradigm for Learning in Organisations. Learning today is much more complex than the Kolb model, and in this ground-breaking book the author introduces a unique perspective on the necessity of 'unlearning'. However, it is much deeper than simply unlearning what you know; the work here explains the key areas for unlearning and the practical implications that affect future learning and performance - a subject all those who are responsible for learning in organisations need to understand. The world has changed radically affecting every aspect of our lives. Learning within organisations needs to be transformed and this book explains the rationale, theories and practice of how that is achieved.
