Une organisation apprenante comme reponse aux challenges VUCA
Le contexte VUCA dans lequel la plupart des organisations opèrent crée un nouveau défi. Là où autrefois les organisations réussissaient (sur des marchés stables) à copier leurs formules de réussite et à produire des produits standard, avec une qualité standard élevée au prix le plus bas possible, le jeu a aujourd'hui totalement changé. Apprendre et Innover sont devenus la stratégie de base pour une performance et un développement durable des entreprises et organisations.

Copying the successful recipes of the past is the reason of failure in the future. An organization needs to be capable of finding totally new answers to the challenges and opportunities that are coming towards them. And company that can do that, that is good at becoming good rapidly in totally different things, is a learning organization.
It's about creating a workplace that creates learning and innovation, it's about sharing knowledge, it's about allowing challenge, contradiction and mistake, it's about collaboration, shared decision making, maximizing involvement, developing sense of belonging etc... The concept is now over 30 years old, but still in organizations we struggle to create truly organizational learning, creative energy and deep, cross the board engagement for a shared purpose.
