Organizational learning definition
Organizational learning is a complex concept, and there is no agreement on what organizational learning is
Transitioning a company from individual learning to organizational learning requires the firm to understand aspects surrounding this concept
Some of the aspects include understanding the culture of the company regarding knowledge sharing and disconnect between the culture and organizational learning based on the mystifications of organizational learning, current organizational learning mechanisms, and the norms surrounding organizational learning.
Organizational learning has led to the upsurge of new terminologies including systems thinking, organizational memory, defensive routines, and creation of knowledge.
OLMs including the company culture, leadership, and systems and structures are some of the hindrances to organizational learning.
The companyâs culture regarding organizational learning is only based on one among the many definitions of the concept.
*
The organization cannot equally learn since it is a system but 'organization's culture' is the one that experiences transformation.The OLM that organizations use is the external model Professionals guide the training, and it entails partitioning organization into cultural learning units then identifying centers. The challenges in the process are that one might learn at a different pace from another person. Lastly, the norm of an organization may hinder learning leading to complexity of the processes
Before integration of each model of learning it requires the conceptualization of the process as individual units.The individual who is involve in the guidance of the process must have an understanding of the finer details of the organization cultureAccording to Lipshitz, Friedman, & Popper, (2006) The focus on leadership roles and the identification of the norms ought to guide the process for the realization of the goal of training.It is also vital noting that an organization is a system that depends on human intellect hence focus on people should guide adjustments of systems.
Since the ever-increasing conceptual diversity, anthropomorphism, and reification of terminologies create discord between culture and organization learning
It therefore requires that the team leaders guiding learning ought to visualize mechanism such as culture and leadership as individual components.
Afterward, segment the organization into social (culture) units then steer leaning with clear goals. Conduct the process as a continuous program by soliciting feedback for the identification of areas of challenge (Graham & Nafukho, 2008).
The subsequent complexity is the perception that organization learns yet actuality, the people forming part of the organization are the ones that learn.
Organizations should instead approach the process as holistic tasks but first, visualize the mechanisms as independent.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Â
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation âBlue Starâ is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

3. A learning organization is the term given to a Company that
facilitates the learning of its members and continuously
transforms itself. Learning organizations develop as a
result of the pressures facing modern organizations and
enables them to remain competitive in the business
environment. A learning organization has five main
features; systems thinking, personal mastery, mental
models, shared vision and team learning.

Single - loop

Double - loop
4. System Thinking
The idea of the learning organization developed
from a body of work called System Thinking.
This is a conceptual framework that allows people to
study businesses as bounded objects. Learning
organizations use this method of thinking When
when
assessing their company and have information systems
that measure the performance of the organization as
a whole and of its various components. Systems thinking
states that all the characteristics must be apparent at
once in an organization for it to be a learning
organization. If some of these Characteristics are missing
then the organization will fall short of its goal.
However OâKeeffe believes that the characteristics of
a learning organization are factors that are gradually
acquired, rather than developed simultaneously.
5. Personal Mastery
The commitment by an individual to the process of learning
is known as personal mastery. There is a competitive
advantage for an organization whose workforce can learn
more quickly than the workforce of other organizations.
Individual learning is acquired through staff training
and development, however learning cannot be forced
upon an individual who is not receptive to learning.
Research shows that most learning in the workplace is
incidental, rather than the product of formal training,
therefore it is important to develop a culture where
personal mastery is practiced in daily life. A learning
organization has been described as the sum of individual
learning, but there must be mechanisms for individual
learning to be transferred into organizational learning.
6. Mental Models
The assumptions held by individuals and organizations
are called mental models. To become a learning
organization, these models must be challenged.
Individuals tend to espouse theories, which are what
they intend to follow, and theories-in-use, which
are what they actually do. Similarly, organizations
tend to have âmemoriesâ which preserve certain
behaviors, norms and values. In creating a learning
environment it is important to replace confrontational
attitudes with an open culture that promotes
inquiry and trust. To achieve this, the learning
organization needs mechanisms for locating and assessing
organizational theories of action. Unwanted values
need to be discarded in a process called âunlearningâ.
Wang and Ahmed refer to this as âtriple loop learning.â
7. Shared Vision
The development of a shared vision is important in motivating
the staff to learn, as it creates a common identity that
provides focus and energy for learning. The most
successful visions build on the individual visions of the
employees at all levels of the organization, thus the
creation of a shared vision can be hindered by traditional
structures where the company vision is imposed from
above. Therefore, learning organizations tend to have
flat, decentralized organizational structure. The shared
vision is often to succeed against a competitor, however
Senge states that these are transitory goals and
suggests that there should also be long term goals
that are intrinsic within the company
8. Team Learning.
The accumulation of individual Learning constitutes Team
Learning. The benefit of team or shared learning is that
staff grow more quickly and the problem solving capacity of
the organization is improved through better access to
knowledge and expertise. Learning organizations have
structures that facilitate team learning with features such
as boundary crossing and openness. Team learning requires
individuals to engage in dialogue and discussion; therefore
team members must develop open communication, shared
meaning, and shared understanding. Learning organizations
typically have excellent knowledge management structures,
allowing creation, acquisition, dissemination, and
implementation of this knowledge in the organization.

demand a flexible, spherical structure that can rotate competent,
self-managing teams and other resources around a common knowledge
base. Such teams, capable of quick action on the firmâs behalf both
externally and internally, provide a distinct competitive advantage.
