Women's centres: relationships between values and action

Article Abstract:

This article adopts an 'organizing' perspective to examine the relationship between values and action. Drawing on case studies of organizing activity which is undertaken with reference to the core values of the autonomous women's movement, the essentially negotiated nature of this relationship is argued and illustrated. Variation is shown to occur in the terms and arenas of negotiation and attention is drawn to the dimensions of the characteristic 'texture of organizing' in the settings described.

Parenthetic learning in organizations: toward the unlearning of the unlearning model

Article Abstract:

The organizational 'unlearning model' is discussed. It is argued that the model fails to capture the individual and organizational processes necessary to achieve the objectives for which it is proposed. To achieve these objectives, an alternative, 'parenthetic learning' model of organizational learning and change is proposed. (Reprinted by permission of the publisher.)
