Monograph by Charles Handy discussing Managing the Dream: The Learning Organization. Handy argues that organizations will have to embrace a theory of learning to stay competitive and successful. Handy describes this learning process as a wheel with four quadrants that work in sequence with one another. This wheel begins with ideas, prompting questions, subjecting those questions to tests, which are further analyzed by reflections, in a process that should yield identification of the best solutions. He contends that organizations must continually strive to reinvent themselves through innovation, and that this constant process will result in change transforming into opportunity for firms and executives. Individuals who delight in the unknown, according to Handy, will be vital to the successful fulfillment of organizations in their process of reinvention.
