Abstract
Key Learnings in a post graduate PhD course are truly in the eye of the beholder, or in this case, in the eye of the learner. A great deal of outside research was completed to support as well as contradict the findings of authors James C. Collins and Jerry I. Porras of Built to Last, and Jerald Greenberg in Managing Behaviors in Organizations. When the dust had settled the topics that provided the greatest opportunity to learn as per this PhD student were: Who or What is Visionary, Culture of High Achieving Organizations, Creativity and Innovation of High Achieving Organizations, The Metaphor of Clock Building, Management Dilemma – Internally or Externally, and The Quest for Leadership. The challenge that then entailed was to form these key topics into a paper with enough cohesiveness in it to make its reading informative, and hopefully educational. Enjoy.
