While a great deal has been written about the need
for new managerial thinking to promote sustainable
organizational performance in the face of today s
turbulent business climate, relatively little
guidance exists. This book addresses this need by
examining the importance of experiential learning in
promoting new managerial thinking that is more
systemic than is traditionally witnessed in
organizations. Further, this work tackles the
challenge of sustaining new ways of thinking by
placing experiential learning within a broader
organizational context. Descriptions of management
training in Toyota and application to promoting
strategic alignment in supply chain management
provide a practical focus to the advice. This book
should be useful to anyone seeking to bring advances
to organizational management, those involved in
organizational change initiatives, managers seeking
to promote more systemic organizational management,
and to trainers and teachers seeking a better
understanding of the strength and limitations of
experiential learning.
