The Ethical Imperative• Life is full of threats & opportunities,
demands & constraints (“pressures”).• Human beings have unique, powerful
capabilities to learn how to meet and embrace these pressures—if the potential is developed/employed.
• Life is short—too valuable to waste.
![Page 9: Organizational Learning / Managing Change - · PDF fileOrganizational Learning / Managing Change The Ethical Imperative of Learning and Growth ... • Learning Organization as a Paradigm](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020315/5aa3df3a7f8b9ada698ece6d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The Ethical Imperative• If . . . the organization is a center for
human community and endeavor to achieve the results its stakeholders truly care about.
• If . . . it is surrounded by an environment full of threats, opportunities, demands, and constraints.
![Page 10: Organizational Learning / Managing Change - · PDF fileOrganizational Learning / Managing Change The Ethical Imperative of Learning and Growth ... • Learning Organization as a Paradigm](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020315/5aa3df3a7f8b9ada698ece6d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The Ethical Imperative• If . . . human beings in community
have unique and powerful capabilities to learn how to meet these pressures.

The Ethical Imperative• If . . . in meeting these pressures,
being ineffective, inefficient or inexcellent is a waste of this human potential.
• And if . . . one should not waste human potential.
• Then . . . .

Organizational Ethics & Excellence
• Fully developing and employing the human potential to learn, in order to achieve the lives an organization’s stakeholders truly care to live, is a necessary (though not sufficient) condition for it to be both ethical andexcellent.

• Change described is largely self-inflicted– Demographics– Technology– Impact on Environment
• Human relationship to evolution of world– Conducive to evolution– Controlling evolution– Coping with consequences– Crisis/Chaos when lose “control”
![Page 28: Organizational Learning / Managing Change - · PDF fileOrganizational Learning / Managing Change The Ethical Imperative of Learning and Growth ... • Learning Organization as a Paradigm](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020315/5aa3df3a7f8b9ada698ece6d/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Change as Contemporary Norm
• Overarching source: competition• Geographic boundaries evaporating• Traditional oligarchies are collapsing• Regulatory changes and privatization
spawning new industries• Customers learning to expect more• Government policy changes

The Organizational Challenge• If . . . change is a constant;• If . . . rate of change is accelerating;• If distributed knowledge is the principal
organizational asset; and• If . . . free market and democracy are
societal norms• Then . . . what must the effective,
efficient, ethical organization change / evolve to become?
