Abstract
Against the backdrop of emerging technologies, organizations are, now more than ever before, needing to develop agile and innovative mindsets within organizations. To achieve agility and innovation, the humans in the organizations—employees and leaders—must have the capabilities to be self-directed, and they must be driven to identify meaningful problems in the organization and engage in collaborative problem-solving to address the problems. Developing these capabilities rests mostly on the organizational environment as created by the leadership and with the opportunities presented through human resource development. The authors maintain it is useful to anchor in andragogy leadership approaches alongside opportunities for organizational learning but to not discount the value of pedagogy when used appropriately.
