WHAT IS LEARNING Learning is the act of acquiring new, or modifying
and reinforcing, existing knowledge, behaviors, skills, values, or preferences and may involve synthesizing different types of information. The ability to learn is possessed by humans, animals and some machines. Progress over time tends to follow learning curves. Learning is not compulsory; it is contextual. It does not happen all at once, but builds upon and is shaped by what we already know. To that end, learning may be viewed as a process, rather than a collection of factual and procedural knowledge. Learning produces changes in the organism and the changes produced are relatively permanent.

EMERGING BUSINESS REALITIES
WHY ORGANIZATIONAL LEARNING? THE “C” WORDS0
Complexity: Situations that are difficult to understand, have considerable ambiguity and uncertainty, and often have no “solutions,” only options and tradeoffs
Chaos: Seemingly random events that have an underlying pattern (which is difficult to discern)
Change: turbulent environments in which the future is difficult to predict or control

EMERGING BUSINESS REALITIES
ORGANIZATIONAL LEARNING -- WHAT?
In learning organizations, people are encouraged to
reflect as they act, share lessons learned and other key information, so that they (and their customers) can
easily access the best thinking of the entire organization.
Put more simply: In a learning organization, when one of us gets smarter, we all can get smarter.

WHAT IS LEARNING ORGANIZATION & WHY ORGANISATIONS NEED TO LEARN
“It is team learning, not individual learning, that adds to organizational learning.”
Peter Senge
The Fifth Discipline

LEARNING ORGANIZATION
“A learning organization is an organization skilled at creating, acquiring, and transferring knowledge, and modifying its behavior to reflect new knowledge and insights”
“New ideas are essential if learning is to take place”
“Without accompanying changes in the way that work gets done, only the potential for improvements exist”

CONCLUSION
Learning organizations foster an environment that is conducive to learning
Learning organizations open up boundaries and stimulate the exchange of ideas

WHAT IS CULTURE?
Visible cultural differencesLanguageHousingFoodClothes Key beliefs
Our understandingsabout what is true.
Norms and valuesWhat we can do and
cannot do.
What is right or wrong.
The layers of culture/onion metaphor:
Other metaphors such as iceberg and ocean have also been used.

WHAT IS CULTURE?
Some definitions: ‘Culture consists in patterned ways of thinking, feeling and reacting,
acquired and transmitted mainly by symbols, constituting the distinctive achievements of human groups, including their embodiments in artefacts; the essential core of culture consists of traditional (i.e. historically derived and selected) ideas and especially their attached values.’
(Kluckhohn, 1951: 86 cited in Hofstede, 2001: 9)
‘the collective programming of the mind that distinguishes the members
of one group or category of people from another’
(Hofstede, 2001: 9)
‘Culture is the characteristic way of behaving and believing that a group of people in a country or region (or firm) have evolved over time and share.’ (Briscoe and Schuler, 2004: 116)

25
HR ISSUES IN THE NEW WORKPLACE
Teams and Projects – major trend in today’s workplace
With emphasis on projects, distinctions between job categories and descriptions are collapsing
Many of today’s workers straddle functional & departmental boundaries; handle multiple tasks/responsibilities
Virtual team = made up of members who are geographically or organizationally dispersed, rarely meet face to face, and do their work using advance information technologies.
Teams and Projects
![Page 26: BLO&KM_16012015](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/55cf91b7550346f57b8ff829/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
26
HR ISSUES IN THE NEW WORKPLACE
In opening years of the 21st century, largest employer in U.S. was a temporary employment agency, Manpower, Inc.
Temporary Employees do everything from data entry to interim CEO
Contingent workers = people who work for an organization, but not on a permanent or full-time basis, including temporary placements, contracted professionals, or leased employees
Temporary Employees
![Page 27: BLO&KM_16012015](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/55cf91b7550346f57b8ff829/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
27
HR ISSUES IN THE NEW WORKPLACE
Telecommuting and virtual teams are related trends
Telecommuting = using computers and telecommunications equipment to perform work from home or another remote location
Work anywhere - wireless Internet devices, laptops, cell phones, fax machines
Extreme telecommuting = people live and work in countries far away from the organization’s physical location
Technology
![Page 28: BLO&KM_16012015](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/55cf91b7550346f57b8ff829/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
28
HR ISSUES IN THE NEW WORKPLACE
Telecommuting is one way organizations help employees lead more balanced lives
Flexible scheduling important in today’s workplace – 27% of workforce/flexible hours
Broad Work-Life Balance initiatives – critical retention strategy – on-site gym & childcare, paid leaves & sabbaticals
Work-Life Balance
Many European companies ahead of U.S. companies
![Page 29: BLO&KM_16012015](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/55cf91b7550346f57b8ff829/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
29
HR ISSUES IN THE NEW WORKPLACE
Downsizing = intentional, planned reduction in the size of a company’s workforce
Managers can smooth the downsizing process Regularly communicating with employees Providing them with as much information as possible Providing assistance to workers who will lose their
jobs Using training and development for remaining
employees
Downsizing

33
BUILDING BLOCKS
Systematic Problem Solving Experimentation Learning from Past Experience Learning from others. Transferring knowledge Measuring learning
Each is accompanied by a distinctive mindset, tool kit and pattern of behavior.
![Page 34: BLO&KM_16012015](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/55cf91b7550346f57b8ff829/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
34
SYSTEMATIC PROBLEM SOLVING
Rely on scientific method for diagnosing problems “plan, do, check, act”
Data Statistical analysis
Generating ideas and collecting information Reaching consensus Analyzing and displaying data Planning actions
![Page 35: BLO&KM_16012015](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/55cf91b7550346f57b8ff829/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
35
EXPERIMENTATION
On-going programs Series of small experiments Steady flow of new ideas Incentive system Need managers and employees trained in
evaluating and performing experiments
![Page 36: BLO&KM_16012015](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/55cf91b7550346f57b8ff829/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
36
EXPERIMENTATION Demonstration Projects
First projects to embody principles and approaches company hopes to adopt on a larger scale
Establish policy guidelines and decision rules for later projects
Encounter severe tests of commitment from employees (testing rule change)
Limited impact on rest of organization (until implemented)
![Page 37: BLO&KM_16012015](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/55cf91b7550346f57b8ff829/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
37
LEARNING FROM PAST EXPERIENCE
Companies revive successes and failures. Assessment done systematically and in an
open and accessible forum
“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it”
![Page 38: BLO&KM_16012015](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/55cf91b7550346f57b8ff829/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
38
LEARNING FROM OTHERS
“Most powerful insights come from looking outside ones immediate environment to gain a new perspective”
SIS-Steal ideas shamelessly Benchmarking
Ongoing investigation and learning experience that ensures the best industry practices are uncovered, analyzed, adapted and implemented.
![Page 39: BLO&KM_16012015](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/55cf91b7550346f57b8ff829/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
39
TRANSFERRING KNOWLEDGE Knowledge must be spread quickly and
efficiently throughout the organization Maximum impact when shared broadly
Written reports Oral reports Site visits and tours Personnel rotation programs Standardization programs Education and training programs
![Page 40: BLO&KM_16012015](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/55cf91b7550346f57b8ff829/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
40
MEASURING LEARNING
“If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it”
Actual data comparision Learning or experience curves.
Incomplete measures, ignore other competitive variables, like quality, delivery or new product introductions
