How to Become a True Learning Organisation. An OEB Community World Café
Date Thursday, Dec 1 Time – RoomQueen
“True learning organizations are a space for generative conversations and concerted action, which creates a field of alignment that produces tremendous power to invent new realities in conversation and to bring about these new realities in action,” wrote Peter Senge and Fred Kofman.
In this world café an international and intergenerational group of Art of Hosting practitioners will guide you through different rounds of conversations related to this topic.
Are you intrigued by the learning challenges you, your colleagues and your organisation face?
