New and evolving technologies and increasing globalization continue
to impact many businesses. To compete in this rapidly changing
environment, individuals and organizations must take their ability
to learn -- the foundation for continuous improvement, operational
excellence, and innovation -- to a much higher level. In Learn or
Die, Edward D. Hess combines recent advances in neuroscience,
psychology, behavioral economics, and education with key research
on high-performance businesses to create an actionable blueprint
for becoming a leading-edge learning organization. Learn or Die
examines the process of learning from both an individual and an
organizational standpoint. From an individual perspective, the book
discusses the cognitive, emotional, motivational, attitudinal, and
behavioral factors that promote better learning. Organizationally,
Learn or Die focuses on what kind of structures, culture,
leadership, employee learning behaviors, and human resource
policies are necessary to create an environment that enables
critical and innovative thinking, learning conversations, and
collaboration.The volume also provides strategies to mitigate the
reality that humans can be reflexive, lazy thinkers who seek
confirmation of what they believe to be true and affirmation of
their self-image, a reality that makes seeking the truth and
high-quality learning difficult. Exemplar learning organizations
discussed in the book include the secretive Bridgewater Associates,
LP; Intuit, Inc.; United Parcel Service (UPS); W. L. Gore &
Associates; and IDEO.
