Learning in Organizations (Paperback)

This is a lively, student-friendly introduction to new ways of understanding how learning is maintained and transmitted within organisations. For anyone looking for a thorough grounding in a socio-cultural approach to the field, this is an ideal companion, written to explain, engage and encourage critical thinking and evaluative skills from students. Theory is described clearly and succinctly. Through engaging and effective use of features like 'Consider This' and 'What If', this book facilitates student debate. Annotated readings at the end of each chapter help readers to go beyond the text itself as they provide a list of relevant and helpful material that students should consult. It outlines a socio-cultural approach to learning; explains how learning is transmitted in organisations; gives special emphasis on how to better understand the learning process of newcomers; and, discusses key concepts in organisational learning like communities of practice, emotions, social identity, knowing, role models and organisational socialisations.
