Ambiguity, ruth and propitiation Available to Purchase

Argues that leadership in a learning organization is only accorded to those who situationally articulate its cultural beliefs. Normative attitudes are not a mainstay, yet the more abundant the learning potential the more scope there is for ambiguity which frequently militates against effective organization.

The argument is illustrated from the author’s own workplace role with a myriad innovative ideas which have blossomed.
