How to Create an Action Learning Environment That Makes Self and Social Awareness Business-Like
Sandager, Dorte; Bragh, Kirsten; Svalgaard, Lotte
Action Learning: Research and Practice, v16 n2 p166-177 2019
Promoting open reflection and exploration on group dynamics is delicate work and is often considered 'not very business-like' in a business context. How to approach this work is a constant balance and struggle for action learning practitioners. In this account of practice, we present central elements in our action learning framework -- Action Lab® -- where the design builds on Business Driven Action Learning. We share core ideas and assumptions behind our action learning approach, which is informed by a systems psychodynamic understanding of groups. This account of practice aims at sharing and discussing ideas and distinctive work modes for creating double awareness -- i.e. how to maintain a balanced awareness of task and process and how to increase self and social awareness -- in a performance-driven business contexts.
