ABSTRACT

Summary: This chapter begins by exploring social learning. It then discusses David Kolb’s work on individual experiential learning. His ideas are extended into a collective social learning capable of guiding transformational change.

Note: This chapter is for those who wish to know the theory behind the practice. For readers with a greater interest in the practical aspects, rather than the theory, go straight to Chapter 2. Here you’ll find a template for guiding transformational change. You can then choose from the 16 case studies in Part 2. Read those along with the template to guide your collective learning process.
