Description: Scholars in Management Learning (Goleman, 1998; Hambrick, 1994; Kayes, 2002; Wegner, 1998) emphasize the importance of providing “real-world” learning opportunities that transcend the theoretical or are academically self-reinforcing. Senge, Kleiner, Roberts, Ross, and Smith (1994, 1997) indicate that to overcome reliance on theoretical models that do not represent organizational reality or management as practiced, inter-disciplinary, action learning, and experiential styles of education are most appropriate as they do not seek to reduce complexity or eliminate paradox. Whittington (1996) refers to this approach to management learning as “management as practiced” and Balogun (2006) uses the term the “management practice turn.”
