Action learning and constructivist grounded theory: powerfully overlapping fields of practice

Abstract

This paper considers the shared characteristics between action learning (AL) and the research methodology constructivist grounded theory (CGT). Mirroring Edmonstone's [2011. "Action Learning and Organisation Development: Overlapping Fields of Practice." Action Learning: Research and Practice 8 (2): 93--102] article, which explored the relationship(s) between AL and organisation development, a case is made that AL and CGT are powerfully overlapping fields of practice. An account of practice is included to provide a contextual explanation of the 'overlap', and a new methodological praxeology is proposed to the field of practice/practitioner-focused research.
