Using Advocacy and Inquiry to Improve the Thinking Process of Future Managers

Abstract

In today’s dynamic and intricate environment, how do educators make a difference in teaching future managers to explore complex, interdependent problems in a way that helps them think together to arrive at new insights? Organizational learning using the tools of advocacy and inquiry can help. When balancing advocacy and inquiry, one lays out one’s reasoning and thinking and then encourages others to challenge them. Case method and lecture/discussion are used to explore these concepts. A coding scheme was developed to evaluate low and high advocacy and inquiry.
