Rol says his organisation "is not an LO".
How can this be?
Is the organisation learning nothing? Is it incapable of producing
except through explicit intervention or individual (non-organisation)
action? Does it never change? Are the people in it either not
learning or not sharing what they learn? Is it so blocked that no
learning can occur?
Surely, Rol, your organisation is already a learning. Surely it is
also not learning up to its full potential.
This idea that an LO is an ideal that few if any organisations can
attain does not serve us well. I much prefer the idea that all
organisations are learning and that what we are pursuing is to
enable, enhance, increase that already existing ability, capacity and
practice.
Rol, what do you say?
