Account of practice: transferring the ‘drawer of nonsense’ from a DBA-program to daily professional practice

Gido Englisch

Action Learning: Research and Practice, 2018, vol. 15, issue 2, 182-188

Abstract: This article attempts to build a cross-reference between a Doctoral program in Business and Administration (DBA) and the concept of ‘Action Learning’ made known within this programme, while also highlighting the relevance for ‘Action Learning’ in the authors professional daily life. The experiences made during the studies, when the concept of Action Learning was first introduced and applied, are gleaned and thus compared to the professional problems encountered by consultants in the financial industry. The chances and benefits for the professional life are highlighted, and suggestions are made to enrich the student experience while attending a DBA-program.
