The interrelation and details of these topics are described in detail. Posits that a measurement methodology and communications medium must be formalized to enable an organization to become a learning organization. Develops a model against which a desired state can be defined for an organization. States that initiating necessary changes to create a successful learning organization must begin at the top of an organization. Examines the questions of progress measurement and implementation of policies and processes.Keywords
