Readers are kept abreast of new thinking, trends and developments in organizational learning:

  • Through original research that has an emphasis on the practical implications
  • With current ideas and viewpoints from some of the best thinkers in the field today
  • Via international case studies that reveal the benefits and pitfalls of initiatives
  • By being able to benchmark their current organizational learning practices against best practice organizations
  • Thanks to easy-to-digest reviews of the best research from other relevant journals
  • Through book reviews and interviews with key thought leaders around the globe.
