Product Description
Competitive success depends on learning, but most people, including professionals in leadership positions, are not very good at it. Learning is a function of how people reason about their own behavior. Yet most people engage in defensive reasoning when confronted with problems. They blame others and avoid examining critically the way they have contributed to problems. This classic article by Chris Argyris shows how companies that focus on continuously improving their managers' and employees' reasoning patterns can improve employee problem-solving and therefore increase success.

Doesn't quite do what it says on the tin
A pretty good intro to Chris Argyris' views on Theories in Use but very light on what you actually need to do to help Smart People learn better. I agree with the diagnosis, I was just looking for more of the cure!
