Abstract

This article analyses organizational dynamics as the set of factors that allow an organization to evolve, survive and compete in a global competitive environment. This learning process is interpreted along three dimensions: knowledge management, change management and innovation management, and is contextualized within the current framework of the knowledge society of the information age. Entrepreneurship is interpreted as a positive and necessary attitude for innovative managers who wish to direct effective organizations. The information age and the knowledge society paradigm demand a holistic and systemic approach that is, in itself, the justification for the broad perspective taken in this article. The author also briefly reviews learning theories and management models that focus on the learning organization paradigm – that of knowledge management.
