Dilworth Summary Action Learning is the most effective and widely used approach to executive and management development in the private and public sectors. But what is it and how has it evolved since its formulation about 40 years ago? This is the first book to fully explore the roots and evolution of action learning and the legacy of its pioneer, Reg Revans. "This books is the first of a two volume set that fully explore the roots of action learning and the legacy of its principal pioneer, Reg Revans.
