The Fifth Discipline
The Art and Practice of the Learning Organization
Book • 1990
The Fifth Discipline by Peter Senge focuses on creating 'learning organizations' that can adapt and innovate in a rapidly changing environment.
The book introduces five disciplines: personal mastery, mental models, shared vision, team learning, and systems thinking.
These disciplines help organizations overcome 'learning disabilities' such as the delusion of learning from experience and the myth of teamwork.
By embracing these disciplines, organizations can foster a culture of continuous learning, enhance problem-solving capabilities, and achieve long-term success.
The book draws on a wide range of sources, including science, spiritual wisdom, psychology, and management thought, and has been influential in shaping modern business management practices.
