"As organizations take learning to the next phase, to meet the learning challenge at the global level, they will benefit from the insights and lessons presented in this excellent book." Eilif Trondsen, Director, Learning on Demand, SRI Consulting Business Intelligence
"Creating a Learning Culture is a book I devoured in several days and will be referring to for several decades...a practical book about what it takes to prosper in today's complex, information-bloated, topsy-turvy world." Jay Cross, CEO, Emergent Learning Forum and Founder, Internet Time Group

"You will want to have Creating a Learning Culture within your grasp at all times... You can spend a second flipping open to almost any page, or take a whole sabbatical to really absorb it all, and in either case your time will be amply rewarded with new insights, inspiration and ideas." Wayne Hodgins, Strategic Futurist, Director of Worldwide Learning Strategies, Director of Strategic Executive Services, Autodesk Inc.

In the world's current change-acceleration mode, we are better learning learning." John Sall, co-founder and executive Vice President, SAS Institute".
