The authors recommend specific practices for learning enhancement in one’s team and organization. The article also highlights three building blocks required for creating learning organizations.

At the bottom of page 6 of the article, a web link is included where students can access the Qualtrics Learning Organization Survey (Links to an external site.). MBA 600 students are expected to complete the survey in full. To complete the online survey, students should consider their current place of employment, or a previous employer. It can be a department, class, store, office, unit, team, or club. Answer honestly and be sure to save a copy of your final screen (print or print screen, capture) which summarizes the company or work unit’s (department’s) ability and willingness to learn and transform. These results speak to the work environment’s culture, and are required as part of the assignment submission.
