ABSTRACT

Over the pasttenyears, action learning has rapidly grown in organizations and communities around the world. Action learning has had a marvellous ability to adapt to a wide array of national and corporate culture, and be successful in enabling all types of organizations to solve problems, develop leaders, build teams and transform their corporate cultures. This chapter will provide case studies and best practices of action learning programmes in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Latin America, Australia and North America. Action learning programmes in academic and government organizations as well as corporations will be included. Global forums as well as the activities and programmes of global institutions such as the World Institute for Action Learning, International Federation of Action Learning and Revans University are also presented.
