More quotes by Peter Senge
Team learning is the Process of aligning and developing the capacity of a team to create the results its members desire. It builds on the discipline of developing a shared vision. It also builds on personal mastery, for talented teams are made up of talented individuals.
Peter Senge
By using the systems archetypes we can learn how to “structure” the details into a coherent picture of the forces at play.
Peter Senge
If you want to see the future of management education you should go to see Team Academy.
Peter Senge
Teams, not individuals, are the fundamental learning unit in modern organizations. This is where the rubber stamp meets the road unless teams can learn, the organization cannot learn.
Peter Senge
When all is said and done, the only change that will make a difference is the transformation of the human heart.
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.
Peter Senge
We need to be the authors of our own life.
Peter Senge
Business and human endeavors are systems...we tend to focus on snapshots of isolated parts of the system. And wonder why our deepest problems never get solved.
Peter Senge
Perhaps for the first time in history, human-kind has the capacity to create far more information than anyone can absorb to foster far greater interdependency than anyone can manage, and to accelerate change far faster than anyone's ability to keep pace.
Peter Senge
Like a pane of glass framing and subtly distorting our vision, mental models determine what we see.
Peter Senge
Innovation requires resources to invest, and you can see many companies pulling back and going into an intense protective mode in a major extended period of financial distress.
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
If you want real, significant, sustainable change, you need talented, committed local line leaders. If the line manager is not innovating, then innovation is not going to occur.
Peter Senge
Few, if any, forces in human affairs are as powerful as shared vision.
Peter Senge
The care leadership strategy is simple: be a model. Commit yourself to your own personal mastery. Talking about personal mastery may open people's minds somewhat, but actions always speak louder than words. 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
In the absence of a great dream pettiness prevails. Shred visions foster risk taking, courage and innovation. Keeping the end in mind creates the confidence to make decisions even in moments of crisis.
Peter Senge
When teams are truly learning, not only are they producing extraordinary results, but the individual members are growing more rapidly than could have occurred otherwise.
Peter Senge
Leadership is about creating new realities.
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
When there is genuine vision(as opposed to the all-too-familiar vision statement), people excel and learn, not because they are told to, but because they want to.
Peter Senge
