Arbeitskreis Systems Engineering VDIThe new format “AK-SE goes digital” opens the first webinar of the year with a presentation on “Tips for leading successful online meetings and webinars” by Christine Mehring.

  • Christine Mehring is a trainer in sales management and communication strategies, and a sociologist at Teambank AG. She specializes in the design of digital training formats and develops and designs qualification and knowledge transfer programs for sales professionals.

In his technical presentation, Karl-Heinz Busch will introduce us to the topic of “Learning Organization”.
Chris Argyris was one of the most important management thinkers and is considered the originator of the concept of the "learning organization." In 1978, he and Donald Schön published their work "The Learning Organization." However, it was only with Peter Senge's book "The Fifth Discipline" that the concept came into focus for management consultants and, consequently, industry. Nevertheless, to this day there is no clear definition of what characterizes a learning organization and how it can be implemented in practice.
The presentation provides an overview and concrete approaches for implementation.
