Organizational learning and strategic renewal

This paper attempts to fill an important gap in the integration of strategy and organizational learning,g through empirical research that examines the process of strategic renewal using a comprehensive,famework of organizational learning. The 4I famework of organizational learning is used to examine the phenomenon of strategic renewal at Canada Post Corporation (CPC). The study illustrates the underlying processes that form the tension between exploration and exploitation, demonstrating why strategic, renewal is so challenging. Furthermore, it challenges assumptions about organizational learning, suggesting that we need to demystify, organizational learning by removing the halo that surrounds it.
