Young organisation - Pains

The key element of growth in companies come from conscious and sub-conscious organisational learning. Conscious learning is a set of rules that are captured over the duration of adoloscence of the company. The do's and dont's that end up as part of employee handbook or employee appraisal formats and operational practices that are internalised. One of the important aspects of this consious learning is "the need for stability" in the thought leadership team. Constant change in that team causes temporal loss of the learning and hence the organisation is always relearning.

The other important aspect of the Organisational learning is the sub conscious learning. Great organisations live or die by this. It is rarely spoken about or written about, but this is what drives long term success. A key component of this sub concious learning would be - how is risk taking viewed by the core group of people ? How is failure judged ?
