    The Fifth Discipline Book Review – The Learning Organization “Bible”

    Posted by admin on February 28th, 2010 and filed under business organization | 8 Comments »

    See why the “The Fifth Discipline” from Peter Senge is mandatory reading for every organization that wants to be a “learning organization”. In the 21st, learning organizations will dominate the landscape. Are you a learning organization?

    See the example of M2MSys, which is a process re-engineering specialist for organization working in the complex markets such as healthcare and government (http://m2msysonline.com). The change is so intense, that we had to become ourselves a learning organization.

    You can see, that as a result of being a learning organization, M2MSys was able to spin-off in a record time, a new organization, to deal with the same business challenges but in the cloud. You like to know to learn more on how to become a learning organization? Then check out 3WCloud (http://3wcloud.com/products)

    Would like a copy of this presentation? Download the presentation on http://www.slideshare.net/M2MSys/peter-senge-fifth-discipline-book-review-presentation
