PEGASUS brochure and web site say:
>By enabling shifts in how people think and interact, the "five
>disciplines" approach to organizational learning lays a foundation for
>deep organizational change. But it also neglects basic aspects of
>management in Industrial-Age institutions that are contrary to
>learning--such as top-down governance and the concentration of power,
>traditional strategy formation, and quantitative performance
>measurement and centralized cost control. Exciting new developments
>that address these issues are slowly finding their way into
>implementation. Peter Senge explores some of these new developments
>that bring promise of a new chapter in developing learning
>organizations.
>
>Peter Senge is a Senior Lecturer at MIT, where he is part of the
>Organizational Learning and Change group. He is the author of The
>Fifth Discipline:The Art and Practice of the Learning Organization and
>related publications. He lectures throughout the world about
>decentralizing the role of leadership in an organization to enhance
>the capacity of all people to work productively toward common goals.
>He is a founding member of the Society for Organizational Learning
>(SoL) and chairperson of the SoL Council of Trustees.
