Becoming a learning organization through partnership

Abstract

Highlights Glasgow Caledonian University’s Partnership for Quality Initiative (PQI), a five‐year learning‐through‐partnership programme, unique in UK higher education, designed to create equal, decision‐making partnerships of university staff, students, employers and community groups. Claims that partnerships have improved the quality and speed of decision making, and increased resources. Explains the background to partnership and learning organizations, the theoretical framework developed through action learning research, and the practical processes, tools and techniques used to turn the idea of learning partnerships into reality.
