As such I would be very grateful to you if you could kindly give me some
direction on the current techniques, processes and systems which could
help operating managers in fostering a Learning culture in the
organisation.

Dear MAYUR,

Some techniques/methods:

* soft-systems methodology (Checkland:

* future search conference (Emery:
http://web.bps.org.uk/sub-syst/division/dop/search/method.htm and
http://www.tortuga.com/participation/search_conference.htm)

* scenario planning (de Geus, van der Heijden:
http://www.mansci.strath.ac.uk/gbba.html)

* strategic conversation network
(http://www.well.com/user/bgm/conf2.html)

* critical systems heuristics (Ulrich)

* interactive management (Warfield:
http://www.cwaltd.com/index1.htm)

* interactive planning (Ackoff:
http://www.interactdesign.com/)

* and a number of so-called action research (or action learning)
approaches:

Will be happy to discuss this further. If you are in India, we can also
arrange to interact outside this forum.
