Joining an action learning "set" can help you discover how to solve problems and make the most of opportunities in only 6 faciliated sessions. Action learning was used by Disney to develop a publishing initiative now worth $50 million. Closer to home, Cornwall County Council used it to save 10% of their mileage - a huge saving.
