Abstract
Developing the capacity to think quickly, take swift action, and do so with competency and character is necessary for success in today's complex and continually changing organizations. Improvisational self-directed learning is presented in this chapter to describe people who can solve novel and surprising problems, create value from fortuitous events, and take action without preplanning. The exercise of human agency, bolstered by strong psychological capital, which includes self-efficacy, hope, optimism, and resilience, is presented as the foundation for the development of improvisational self-directed learning.
