Different authors have scrutinised the role of the action-learning facilitator in upholding the precepts of action learning. Whilst the responsibilities of the facilitator to the group are significant, this paper concentrates on the personal transformation of facilitators who have transitioned into the role in an application of business-driven action learning. Hence, this study explores how individuals who took on the role of action-learning facilitator experienced genuine personal development. This exploration, within a South African context, offers a perspective on facilitator growth, a subject which has not gained much traction in the action-learning literature. The findings offer insight into the internalisation of action-learning principles, critical shifts and heightened learnings for facilitators.","PeriodicalId":44898,"journal":{"name":"Action Learning","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47905579","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

AL members aim to address complexity, bridging the gap between management education delivered by a work-based learning (WBL) apprenticeship course and translating into the apprentices’ workplace. Set members followed a systematic cycle of planning, action, observing and reflecting. This demonstrates how AL, as a methodology, supports apprenticeship ambassadors (who lead apprenticeships in their organisations) and UPs to solve complex problems through inquiry and critical reflection to enhance the apprenticeship curriculum. The principal findings from AL to cultivate stronger collaboration were clarity of WBL, value proposition and ownership expectation; support of translation of theory into practice; empowering the apprenticeship mindset and professional identity; and senior management buy-in.","PeriodicalId":44898,"journal":{"name":"Action Learning","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45833553","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To effectively adopt action learning, Japanese learners need to learn questioning skills, as they have been brought up in an atmosphere that negates questioning. Using Kolb’s learning model, this study aims to present the importance of paying attention to cultural values in participants’ learning environments. Based on 23 interviews with Japanese participants and facilitators, the study proposes that for learners to acquire business skills generated in different cultures, facilitators need to set rules and consultations to support learners in challenging their conventional cultural assumptions.","PeriodicalId":44898,"journal":{"name":"Action Learning","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49552492","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

What he emphasized in his description of action learning (Revans 2011) includes: to learn with and from each other; to search out the meaning of the unseen; learning by posing fresh questions and people who want to effect change. In their attempt to map the extent, growth and variety of action learning in the UK, Pedler, Burgoyne, and Brook (2005) discovered six varieties of practice in use which included selfmanaged action learning, online action learning, critical action learning, auto action learning, action mentoring, business-driven action learning and. Boshyk (2016) suggests that this has grown to at least 27 varieties worldwide. For those practitioners who are firmly embedded in Revans work on action learning and those who aspire to follow the Revans’ gold standard of action learning (Willis 2004) some of the varieties that have emerged are both exciting and puzzling. However, action learning is evolving with new technologies, practitioners and action learners, and it is the accounts of practice from those currently working with the ideas of action learning that help us to map the journey of action learning practice, of how it is being both interpretated and practiced in the field. This part of the journal is for those practising action learning either as an organiser, facilitator, or participant to share their practice to both support other practitioners and to help us understand the evolution of action learning itself. We welcome contributions to help map the journey of action learning in all of its varieties, why they work or do not work, and examples of what goes on within a set or within a particular organisation or community to explain this. Accounts of practice can be a celebration of the power of action learning, but equally can shed light on questions we do not understand. Sometimes contributors feel uncomfortable about sharing what went wrong, but learning from what feels like a mistake, a mishap or even a depressing/disappointing ending is, in itself, valuable. This section is not peer-reviewed but peer-supported throughout the writing and publication process by fellow practitioners, so we invite you to add your experiences to the understanding of how action learning is applied and practiced. Don’t delay – contact us! In this edition, we have accounts of practice from Scotland, South Africa and China that reveal in their variety of approach the authors understanding of action learning and its practice. In the first account Sharp et al, describe the implementation of a process of collective action inquiry to bring about a coaching culture within and across a public service organisation in Scotland.

We position action inquiry as a fresh interpretation of action learning that draws on a variety of roots and traditions and focuses on the nurturing of the collective capacity to lead through everyday interactions. Working with an initial core group of staff, we expanded our reach through an iterative process to intentionally bring more people into the work. We show how we adapted our original plans to respond to the COVID pandemic, the use of stories to propel inquiry and playback insights into the inquiry process, how we deepened inquiry in some settings and how ultimately being online was an opportunity to connect people across a system that we had not anticipated. We share insights into the commissioning process and of the importance of internal sponsorship. It concludes with a striking, participant-led call to approach scaling differently by supporting the co-creation of local implementation strategies and sponsor confidence in the case to use this approach in more circumstances, where participants in action inquiry explore, rather than assume, what the organisation and its staff need.","PeriodicalId":44898,"journal":{"name":"Action Learning","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42463316","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
