Michael Marquardt has been helping organizations and world governments revolutionize the way they solve problems, build effective teams, develop leaders and transform themselves into learning organizations. Optimizing the Power of Action Learning puts the "action" in action learning by focusing on the six essential components that make action learning work: the problem, group diversity, a reflective inquiry process, action strategies, a commitment to learning and the participation of a well-trained action learning coach.
