Take Away:
from lecture,

Learning Organization

• Adopt organic,networked form
• encourage employee to learn and confront their assumptions.
• Have employee share a common vision
• Have the capacity to {adapt to unforeseen situations,learn from own experience,change more quickly,shift their shared mindsets}

Managing Learning Organization
(Decision Making)----->Decentralize

• Downsize
• Reduce management layers
• Establish mini-units

(Personal Mastery)--->Learn/Upgrade

• Provide continuous learning opportunities
  
• Foster inquiry and dialogue
  
• Establish mechanisms to ensure that the organization is continuously aware of and can interact with the environment
  

Organic = flexible,less specialized jobs,decentralize closer to client vs
Outdated Mechanistic organization=many chain of command.

Boundaryless Organization
-> 'Take away the barrier'

• Authority Boundary = status/org level -->communication distorted
  
• Task Boundary = tendency of employee to focus only in their specialize task
• Political Boundary = Power struggle,opposing agenda
• Identity Boundary = groups with shared experience

Delegation

• delegate authority not responsibility
• delicate not abdicate => take away full responsibility
• know what to delegate
• specify the range of discretion =>limit/boundary
• make the person accountable for the decisions
• authority should equal responsibility
  
• beware of backward delectation
