Organizational learning + Managing change + conflict !!!

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER 

In normal conversation we use knowledge to mean:

• Knowing that (facts and information)
• Knowing how (the ability to do something)
  
  
  
  
  
  
  SOCIAL LEARNING THEORY .............................
  
  
  
  1. People can learn by observing the behavior is of others and the outcomes of those behaviors.
  2. Learning can occur without a change in behavior. Behaviorists say that learning has to be represented by a permanent change in behavior, in contrast social learning theorists say that because people can learn through observation alone, their learning may not necessarily be shown in their performance. Learning may or may not result in a behavior change.
  3. Cognition plays a role in learning. Over the last 30 years social learning theory has become increasingly cognitive in its interpretation of human learning. Awareness and expectations of future reinforcements or punishments can have a major effect on the behaviors that people exhibit.
  4. Social learning theory can be considered a bridge or a transition between behaviorist learning theories and cognitive learning theories.
  
  
  
  Example:
  The most common (and pervasive) examples of social learning situations are television commercials. Commercials suggest that drinking a certain beverage or using a particular hair shampoo will make us popular and win the admiration of attractive people. Depending upon the component processes involved (such as attention or motivation), we may model the behavior shown in the commercial and buy the product being advertised.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  LeArNiNg OrGaNizAtIoNs !!! 
  Is a concept that is becoming an increasingly widespread philosophy in modern companies, from the largest multinationals to the smallest ventures. What is achieved by this philosophy depends considerably on one's interpretation of it and commitment to it. The quote below gives a simple definition that we felt was the true ideology behind the Learning Organisation.

  QUESTION FOR THE BLOG ???
•  What is the relationship between organizational
  learning and individual satisfaction?
  

  the basic difference is that organizational learning has a powerful tool to improve the performance of an organization in learning and adaptation and individual satisfaction is the individuals experience of a sens of fulfillment of a need or want and the quality or state of being satisfied.

  For us what is the concept CHANGE: 

  Characteristics needed to succeed:

  • Adaptiveness

  • Flexibility: Be Flexible Without Compromising Your Integrity
    
    

  

  • Responsiveness:Readily reacting to suggestions, influences, appeals, or efforts. 

   
  
  

  
  
  
  
  ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE:
  
  
  
  
  
   The success of any organizational change effort can be summed into an equation:   Success = Measurement X Method X Control X Focused Persistence X Consensus Like any equation with multiplication, a high value of one variable can compensate for lower levels on other variables. Also like any equation with multiplication, if one variable equals 0, the result is zero.
