Synopsis

In the long run, the only sustainable source of competitive advantage is your organization's ability to learn faster than its competition.

Founder and Director of the Center for Organizational Learning at MIT's Sloan School of Management, which boasts such members as Intel, Ford, Herman Miller, and Harley Davidson, author Peter M. Senge has found a means of creating a "learning organization." In THE FIFTH DISCIPLINE, he draws the blueprints for an organization where people expand their capacity to create the results they truly desire, where new and expansive patterns of thinking are nurtured, where collective aspiration is set free, and where people are continually learning how to learn together. THE FIFTH DISCIPLINE fuses these features into a coherent body of theory and practice, making the whole of an organization more effective than the sum of its parts.

Company after company, from Intel to AT&T to Procter & Gamble to Coopers and Lybrand, have adopted the disciplines of the learning organization to rid themselves of the learning "disabilities" embedded in how we think and work together. Mastering the disciplines will : • reignite the spark of genuine learning driven by people focused on what truly matters to them • bridge teamwork into macro-creativity • free you of confining assumptions and mindsets • teach you to see the forest and the trees • end the struggle between work and family time

The Currency paperback edition contains a new introduction, which welcomes readers to the ever-expanding community of learners united by their passionate belief in these ideas and helps people encountering this work for the first time.
