What is Action Learning?

Learning from experience:
ours, yours & others

• Work on real issues and problems.
• Work together to check individual perceptions, clarify the issues and explore alternatives for action.
• Take action in the light of new insight and begin to change the situation.
• Bring an account of the consequences back to the group for further shared reflection and learning.
• Focus on learning, not only about the issue being tackled but also on what it being learned about oneself. 
• Be aware of group processes and develop effective ways of working together.
