The challenge for organizations remains how best to respond to employees’ expectations for shaping a positive and supportive work environment. This is particularly important in the case of the executive group, which is burdened with responsibility for company performance, forced to work at a fast pace, and at the highest level of productivity. Meeting the demands of the environment requires the ability to learn. This chapter seeks to answer the following question: What are executives’ expectations regarding the learning environment, and what methods, tools, and materials do they need? The research takes into account the influence of the cultural and corporate values in which executives operate. Knowing what is expected allows organizations to tailor their own activities to the learning styles of executives and their learning formula preferences, which, in turn, enables the conscious co-creation of career paths. The research is based on a survey of a sample of 76 participants in two MBA programs in the same university, conducted over the course of one academic year.

摘要

The challenge for organizations remains how best to respond to employees’ expectations for shaping a positive and supportive work environment. This is particularly important in the case of the executive group, which is burdened with responsibility for company performance, forced to work at a fast pace, and at the highest level of productivity. Meeting the demands of the environment requires the ability to learn. This chapter seeks to answer the following question: What are executives’ expectations regarding the learning environment, and what methods, tools, and materials do they need? The research takes into account the influence of the cultural and corporate values in which executives operate. Knowing what is expected allows organizations to tailor their own activities to the learning styles of executives and their learning formula preferences, which, in turn, enables the conscious co-creation of career paths. The research is based on a survey of a sample of 76 participants in two MBA programs in the same university, conducted over the course of one academic year.
