Koncepcja organizacji uczącej się w kontekście szkoły wyższej

In a global competition systemic improvement, reflecting upon systems, structures, organization, processes, methods and tools applied in an organization becomes crucial precondition of success. There is an urgent need for innovation and change, so learning becomes indispensible, not only on a personal level but also on an organizational level. Higher education institution (HEI), which mission is to create and generate knowledge, seems to be a perfect place to implement a concept of a learning organization. In the paper the analysis of the concept of organisational learning and learning organisation is presented with an attempt to indicate HEIs which of the ideas to follow. The author considers features within higher education institutions that encourage and hinder learning and presents the specific conditions of the application of the concept in the higher education setting.
