How Organizations Learn

The management topic of the 1980s was leadership; the major theme which in the 1990s is the learning organization. Starkey links the two concepts in this text that brings together the key theories and points the way to future agendas for study. The selection of readings is arranged under three headings: conceptualizing leadership and organizational learning; leadership as learning; and developing learning organizations. The collection of readings include work by Peters, Mintzberg and Kanter, and may be suitable for MBA students and executive short course participants, as well as undergraduates.
