Learning Literacy SM is a bottoms-up approach to building a Learning Organization that addresses
the specific motivation, learning needs, and aspirations of individuals who define an organization.
This bottoms-up approach has the potential to help an organization more fully realize the benefits promised by
the Learning Organization.
Founded in Educational, Management, and Social Theory, Learning Literacy is a process-driven methodology that
employs familiar - and new - tools to help individuals better "learn how to learn." An individual who actively
practices the concepts of Learning Literacy will be better able to assimilate and internalize new stimuli into their
active decision making universe. Recognizing diversity in the current business environment, Learning Literacy addresses
the varied considerations associated with differing cultural backgrounds, learning styles, and individual motivation.
Individuals who are Learning Literate will have more satisfying work experiences, will attain higher levels of self-actualization, and
will deliver high-performance results for the organization with which they are associated. Organizations that are
Learning Literate will see higher levels of engagement by their employees and will be positioned to sustain their competitive
advantage.
Chenery & Company, Inc. embeds the principles of Learning Literacy in all of its client
engagements. A white paper articulating the impact of promoting Learning Literacy in an organization is due
to be published in September, 2004.
