Ebook: Optimizing the Power of Action Learning: Solving Problems and Building Leaders in Real Time

No single individual, or organization for that matter, has a monopoly on problem solving. History proves that the best decisions flow from diverse opinions. The natural progression of the decision making model is the real-time development of those decisions by the cross-functional teams serving on the frontlines of the organization. This next level of decision development is the focus of George Washington University professor Michael Marquardt's book titled, "Optimizing the Power of Action Learning." Soundview recommends this book because Marquadt's concept of Action Learning goes beyond problem solving to also encompass critical business functions of capacity expansion and leadership development. Marquardt clearly explains how his methodology works withi examples of the action learning process in action. Whether the problems are, big or small, action learning helps harness the collective brain power of your team to work through it and move the organization forward.
