We are all smart people, but do you know how to learn? And even more importantly can your organization or team learn as a unit? Peter Senge’s vision of a learning organization as a group of people who are continually enhancing their capabilities to create what they want to create has been deeply influential. He discusses the five disciplines he sees as central to learning organizations and some issues and questions concerning the theory and practice of learning organizations. The Learning Organization

Leverage The Power of your Social Media Brand

I am reminded of the joke about the fellow stuck on an island as the river rose. A rescue team threw him a rope and he refused to grab it because “God Saves”. The river rose and the rescue team sent a boat to him and he refused to get in because “God Saves”. The river rose and he climbed the flag pole and a helicopter came by to pick him up and he refused to get in because “God Saves”. He finally drowned and when he stood before God, he was miffed. “Why didn’t you save me?” he screamed out. God looked down and said “I sent you a rope, a boat and a helicopter. What more do you want?”

If you think you are having a bad day!

One hour after beginning a new job, which involved moving a pile of bricks from the top of a two-story house to the ground, a construction worker in Peterborough, Ontario, suffered an accident which hospitalized him. He was instructed by his employer to fill out an accident report. It read: "Thinking I could save some time, I rigged a beam with a pulley at the top of the house and a rope leading to the ground.

I tied an empty barrel on one end of the rope, pulled it up to the top of the house, and then fastened the other end of the rope to a tree. Going up to the top of the house I filled the barrel with bricks. Then, I went down and unfastened the rope to let the barrel down.

Unfortunately the barrel of bricks was now heavier than I, and before I knew what was happening, the barrel jerked me up in the air. I hung on to the rope and halfway up I met the barrel coming down, receiving a severe blow on the left shoulder. I then continued on up to the top, banging my head on the beam and jamming my fingers in the pulley.

When the barrel hit the ground, the bottom burst, spilling the bricks. As I was now heavier than the barrel, I started down at high speed. Halfway down I met the barrel now coming up, receiving several cuts and contusions from the sharp edges of the barrel. At this point I must have become confused because I let go of the rope, the barrel came down, striking me on the head.

I woke up in the hospital. I respectfully request sick leave."
