The Action Learning Model of Experiential Learning for Developing Managers
梳理了管理教育中行动学习模型的理论基础，将其学习过程与Bion提出的群体动力学概念相联系，并说明该模型能利用群体工作中产生的无意识力量。
The purpose of this paper is to collate a theoretical background for the action learning model of management education. The paper relates the learning processes that occur in the action learning model to the basic concepts of group dynamics proposed by Bion. Many writers consider that management education should be active and experienced-based, problemoriented, continuous, supportive, and modified by feedback. Students should have a high level of motivation. The action learning model meets all these criteria. In addition, it has the ability to harness unconscious forces that can be generated in group work if the group is properlyformed and led. Bion identified these forces as the proto-mental system, which derives from the potential valency of each member of the group. The interchange of new learning experiences between the members of the group has been likened to symbiosis by Revans. The potential valency of each member of the group-and hence the symbiotic effect-can be reinforced by the group leader or set adviser and this is a distinctive characteristic of the action learning model.
