Homework

Before starting on this homework make sure to go through the background materials carefully and go through the main textbook readings. Also, reflect carefully upon your Module Case Homework and think about some major areas that you would like to improve upon for your own leadership development based on the self-assessments you have done so far in this class.

Once you have reviewed the background materials and gained a solid understanding about the main steps and challenges of action learning, write a 4 to 5 pages paper addressing the following questions:

Question I. Since this is your last Case Homework for the class, start out this homework by reflecting on what you have found in your Module Case Homework. Based on your prior homework and what you have learned so far, what do you think are some of the main areas you and/or some of the coworkers that you have written about should try to improve upon?

Question II. Now turn to Chapter 1 of Pedler and Abbot (2013) and pages 41-42 of Passmore (2011) where the potential benefit of action learning is discussed. Based on your answer to Question I above and from these two readings, what would you hope to improve upon using an action learning program? Do you think action learning would help you improve in these areas? Explain your reasoning both with respect to the readings and the areas for improvement in your leadership that you have identified so far in this class.

Question III. Go to the "Organizational Readiness for Action Learning" quiz on pages 43-44 of Pedler and Abbot (2013). Fill it out and report your results. Overall what does the quiz say about your organization's readiness to engage in an action learning program? Do you agree with the results? What kind of challenges do you think you would face in setting up an action learning program at your organization?

Question IV. Finally, take a look at pages 37-38 of Passmore (2011) and Chapter 8 of Marquardt (2004), which give step-by-step guidelines on setting up an action learning program. Based on your answers to Questions I-III, how would you design an action learning program in your workplace? Include in your answer what kind of problem your set would work on, who you would include in your set, how often you think the group should meet, and other relevant steps outlined in the required readings. Explain the reasoning for your choices and what kind of outcomes you would hope to get out of this experience
