Features: The format of "The Fifth Discipline Fieldbook: The Learning Organization in Action" is perfectly suited for its purpose.

I highly recommend this book to those interested in organizational learning or considering introducing the concepts of organizational learning into the workplace.

"The Fifth Discipline Fieldbook: The Learning Organization in Action" guides us beyond process management, total quality management, or even transformative leadership, towards organizational learning. The author reveals the important distinction between traditional single-loop learning and more dynamic double-loop learning, which can shake the foundation of a company or even a society. The author explains how leaders of real-world organizational learning decentralize within the organization, rather than centralizing through a centralized bureaucratic system. "The Fifth Discipline Fieldbook: The Learning Organization in Action" can play a vital role in inspiring thought for management research. Every leader in an organization should read, reflect on, and learn from it.
