It is interesting to discuss your different perspectives on how your leadership styles fit within the learning organization(LO) and the comparisons made between the LO and complex adaptive systems. The two systems definitely have similarities and a learning organization can certainly be supported by the principles of the complex adaptive system. When you think about various forms of leadership styles you’ve studied such as transactional or transformational, or any other styles, are there any that just wouldn’t work within a learning organization? What role does mentoring, coaching, and apprenticeship play in the learning organization as opposed to the traditional or complex adaptive systems organizational model?
