I think that OL is more complex than Knowledge Management (KM). It is because KM is one part of OL such as the one parts of paradigm shift in today's world. Although OL is difficult subject, OL is easy to apply in nowadays society. For example: many organizations will learn other firms administration method, one ways of this situation is employed other firms outstanding employee to capture their knowledge to make the organization efficiency and effective.
For the example of the Hitoshi Yamada, I appreciate Hitoshi Yamada talent. His management philosophy can save many organizations which near to die. Moreover, he can find some specific perspective that many senior manager or administrator can not do it. Nowadays, the education level of people is plenty of increasing comparing the past. Some students can concentrate some professional subject to study such as marketing, human resources. These subjects can help the organizations to solve the official problem such as waste the resources, enhance their employee motivation. It seems that the organization trains own corporate doctor in the firm.
After the lesson, I think that "Learning" is the chemical reaction. One element can find other elements to be a compound, so that the reaction exists. This analogy is said that peoples gains the new way to solve the problems or recognize to the new objects from the daily life. We can select the suitable and efficiency method to know and solve the event. Then, we must remember the method and save our brain forever. Therefore, this is learning.
