Leadership coaches Rimanoczy and Turner draw on adult learning theory and action learning methodology to present a guide to action reflection learning (ARL) and its implementation in any training environment. Combining stories, journal entries, and narrative case examples drawn from their own experience, they demonstrate how to apply ARL techniques to design and implement more effective learning interventions in various settings in and out of the classroom.

Readers may never think of learning, training, or teaching the same way again! Building on the pioneering fundamentals of effective adult learning and many of the core principles of today's popular action learning methodology, Action Reflection Learning delivers a next-generation approach that will transform the way adult learning takes place. Through dozens of stories of real people, making real changes in the way adult learners learn, the authors demonstrate how to apply these methods and techniques to design and implement more effective learning interventions in any number of settings--from leadership development workshops to one-on-one coaching.
