Two or three years ago, I read an article where Rich Teerlink of Harley
Davidson said that he believed in the learning organization because it was
the right way to go. When asked whether he had proof of its effects, he
said that he didn't need proof and hard measurements. He saw evidence of
it, not proof, and that was enough for him.
I'm regret that I no longer have the article because I have thought about
it often.
