More quotes by Peter Senge
Small changes can produce big results - but the areas of highest leverage are often the least obvious.
Peter Senge
The care leadership strategy is simple: be a model. Commit yourself to your own personal mastery.

There is nothing more powerful you can do to encourage others in their quest for personal mastery than to be serious in your own quest.
Peter Senge

Peter Senge

Peter Senge
How has the world of the child changed in the last 150 years? The answer is. It's hard to imagine any way in which it hasn't changed.They're immersed in all kinds of stuff that was unheard of 150 years ago, and yet if you look at schools today versus 100 years ago, they are more similar than dissimilar.
Peter Senge
Collaboration is vital to sustain what we call profound or really deep change, because without it, organizations are just overwhelmed by the forces of the status quo.
Peter Senge
Additional problems are the offspring of poor decisions. When inquiry and advocacy are combined, the goal is no longer 'to win the argument', but to find the best argument.
Peter Senge
It is a testament to our naïveté about culture that we think that we can change it by simply declaring new values. Such declarations usually produce only cynicism.
Peter Senge
If you want to see the future of management education you should go to see Team Academy.
Peter Senge
The difference between a healthy group or organization and an unhealthy one lies in its members' awareness and ability to acknowledge their felt needs to conform.
Peter Senge
In great teams conflict becomes productive.
Peter Senge
Learning cannot be disassociated from action.
Peter Senge
Like a pane of glass framing and subtly distorting our vision, mental models determine what we see.
Peter Senge
If there is genuine potential for growth, build capacity in advance of demand, as a strategy for creating demand. Hold the vision, especially as regards assessing key performance and evaluating whether capacity to meet potential demand is adequate.
