Founder and Director of the Center for Organizational Learning =
at MIT=E2=80=99s Sloan School of Management, which boasts such members =
as Intel, Ford, Herman Miller, and Harley Davidson, author Peter M. =
Senge has found a means of creating a =E2=80=9Clearning =
organization.=E2=80=9D In THE FIFTH DISCIPLINE, he draws the blueprints =
for an organization where people expand their capacity to create the =
results they truly desire, where new and expansive patterns of thinking =
are nurtured, where collective aspiration is set free, and where people =
are continually learning how to learn together. THE FIFTH DISCIPLINE =
fuses these features into a coherent body of theory and practice, making =
the whole of an organization more effective than the sum of its parts.

Company after company, from Intel to AT&T to Procter & Gamble =
to Coopers and Lybrand, have adopted the disciplines of the learning =
organization to rid themselves of the learning =
=E2=80=9Cdisabilities=E2=80=9D embedded in how we think and work =
together. Mastering the disciplines will:

=E2=96=BA reignite the spark of genuine learning driven by =
people focused on what truly matters to them

=E2=96=BA bridge teamwork into macro-creativity

=E2=96=BA free you of confining assumptions and mindsets

=E2=96=BA teach you to see the forest and the trees
