About the Summary
In the long run, the only sustainable competitive advantage is your organization’s ability to learn faster than the competition. In The Fifth Discipline, Peter Senge describes how companies can rid themselves of the learning “disabilities” that threaten their productivity and success by adopting the strategies of learning organizations – ones in which new and expansive patterns of thinking are nurtured, collective aspiration is set free, and people are continually learning how to create results they truly desire.
