Global Classroom

Pioneering Pathways of Profound Innovation and Change
5 Lectures by Ed Schein, Peter Senge, and Otto Scharmer
The Spring Live Webcast of the Global Classroom feature four fundamental concepts of organizational learning, leadership, and change: organizational culture, process consultation, organizational learning/systems thinking, and Theory U. The speakers and authors will reflect on the essence of these concepts and how they have evolved as we have moved from a mostly stable 20th century into a 21st century marked by ecological, social, economic, and spiritual crisis and disruption.
