Evaluative Inquiry for Learning in Organizations



248 pages | SAGE Publications, Inc
How does evaluative inquiry contribute to organizational learning? How can we practice evaluative inquiry in ways that maximize individual and team learning? This book provides a data-based approach to organizational learning and change and focusses on the use of evaluative inquiry processes with organizations rather than across large-scale, multi-site programmes. It contains four illustrative case studies; interview extracts; strategy plans; and flow charts, diagrams and advice boxes that consultants can use for implementing their own training and development sessions.
