Abstract: | That organizations can learn to change is a captivating idea with the potential to revolutionize our understandings of competitive positioning, strategic planning, and organizational change. There is a danger, however, that the learning organization will become the newest addition in a long succession of management fads, producing its own generation of quick-fix solutions in a box. There is also the hazard that the learning organization will be prescribed as the ultimate cure for afflictions such as stagnancy and surprise. However, even the learning organization model, when perfectly implemented, will not be a panacea for all organizational ills. Companies will still experience in making change happen, and time will assuredly expose significant limitations of this fourth model of strategic change. |
