Scope/Description:

Action LearningResearchPractice will publish articles which advance knowledge and assist the development of practice through the processes of action learning. Articles should aim to create theory grounded in empirical observation of data and experience that widens understanding of action learning and research in professional and organisational settings. Papers should encourage practitioners to gain new insights into their work and help them improve their effectiveness and contribution to their clients and the wider community.Action learning is grounded in the approach pioneered by Reg Revans which holds that there can be no learning without action and no knowing without the effort to practise and implement what is claimed as knowledge. Because action learning promotes the creative integration of thinkingdoing theorypractice academicpractitioner contributors are asked to strive to hold these often diverse perspectives together. An important question in assessing papers will be Is this likely to help people in the further development of their practice in working with people organisations and communitiesArticles which cross the conventional boundaries of professions organisations and communities are particularly welcome. The editors will also welcome responses from readers to all these contributions and publish alternative views in the spirit of debate and discussion.
