Abstract

In this chapter I discuss the concept of knowledge and explain that the ability to succeed in creating a learning organization is closely linked to whether the organization takes time to reflect on what the concept actually means. I also present two different schools of learning where learning is seen either as a technical or a social process and discuss what type of approach that is best to follow depending on the type of organization. Further on, the four different learning disciplines of organizational learning, the learning organization, organizational knowledge and knowledge management give a good overview of how learning may have a different emphasis on the dimensions of theory-practice and process-content respectively.
