Through illuminating stories and examples from organizations like Pfizer, Volvo, and Chubb, which have successfully implemented Action Learning, this is the one book that will show you how to create a fulfilling, unique program for your own organization. Combining top-shelf research with real-world experience, Understanding Action Learning is a crucial resource that no educator can afford to be without."--Jacket
