Abstract
If you have followed this book from the beginning, you will note that we have provided you with a systemic frame of reference (Part I), exposed you to the Who, What, Why, When, How, and Where of systemic thinking (Part II), and have discussed the course of action selection and implementation (Chaps. 12–14 in Part III). This chapter will address learning and the individual, group, organizational , and inter-organizational aspects of learning in an effort to further enforce the thoughts on observation from the previous chapter.
