I learn, I know, I grow, and I rejoice

Knowledge is an outcome of learning. Learning feeds innovation. Innovation creates value, value for all stakeholders. Learning is an essential skill in the knowledge economy. One of the best things a business manager can do and should do is to develop and nurture a culture of organizational learning in the organization. Technological tools are great. But, ultimately, it's people that make the greatest difference. The same people may perform very differently under different leaderships and management styles. Besides, not all types of knowledge ought to be treated in the same way. How to best synchronize application domain, people, technology, process, and measurement still remains a major challenge for managers today. Is it analytic or holistic in nature? Both, I'd say. Is it more important for some sectors than the others. I'd be tempted to quickly say Yes. But a little more thinking pulled me back to say "Well, not quite." Nobody can solely rely on his muscle to perform excellently at work. Brain power has to be drawn upon and utilized in order to produce innovative value and sometimes even just to get by in today's business environment.
