ABSTRACT
This chapter elaborates on how Codevelopment Action Learning (CAL) effectively accelerates sustainable business, team, and social development. The power of CAL lies in its ability to tackle challenging issues and prompt action while fostering continuous learning and improvement through thoughtful questioning and reflection.
For decision-makers, including business executives, team leaders, entrepreneurs, and community and social leaders, who prioritize innovation, collaboration, trust-building, team and talent development, and community growth, CAL presents a compelling option to accelerate projects and objectives. Entrepreneurs, in particular, benefit from the method’s cost-effectiveness, efficiency, and rapid results.
The chapter commences with a vivid illustration of MicroMega/COLTENE senior management, followed by the presentation of entrepreneurs associated with Community Futures Development Corporation. Additionally, an abstract of two online co-learning and co-creation events conducted during the COVID-19 lockdown is provided.
These cases effectively incorporate many of the ten winning conditions for a successful and enduring implementation, which are thoroughly discussed in Chapter 12 and conveniently flagged throughout the text for easy reference.
