Action learning is a collaborative problem-solving process where learners work in groups, known as “action learning sets,” to address real-world challenges and reflect on their experiences to foster learning and development. This approach was pioneered by Reg Revans, often referred to as the father of Action Learning, who emphasized the importance of learning through doing and the power of reflective questioning to drive both individual and organizational growth. Dr. Verna Willis further expanded on the concept, highlighting the role of Action Learning in developing leadership skills and driving organizational change by integrating learning with immediate, practical action.

In corporate training, Action Learning is particularly effective for developing critical thinking, teamwork, and leadership skills, as participants engage with complex, real-life problems that require innovative solutions. By focusing on practical application and continuous reflection, Action Learning helps employees deepen their understanding of key concepts while directly contributing to organizational objectives.
