ABSTRACT
The previous chapters provided the foundation for the formation of “best practices” to implement and sustain responsive organizational dynamism (ROD). First, it is important to define what we mean by best practices and specify which components comprise that definition. Best practices are defined as generally accepted ways of doing specific functions or processes by a particular profession or industry. Best practices, in the context of ROD, are a set of processes, behaviors, and organizational structures that tend to provide successful foundations to implement and sustain organizational learning. I defined responsive organizational dynamism as the disposition of a company to respond at the organizational level to the volatility of advancing technologies-technologies that challenge the organization to manage a constant state of dynamic and unpredictable change. Second, best practices are those that need to be attributed to multiple communities of practice as well as to the different professions or disciplines within a learning organization.
