Alan Schon (1930-1997) trained as a philosopher, but it was his concern with the
development of reflective practice and learning systems within organizations and
communities for which he is remembered. Significantly, he was also an
accomplished pianist and clarinettist – playing in both jazz and chamber groups.
This interest in improvisation and structure was mirrored in his academic
writing, most notably in his exploration of professional’s ability to ‘think on
their feet’. On this page we review his achievements and focus on three elements
of his thinking: learning systems (and learning societies and institutions);
double-loop and organizational learning (arising out of his collaboration with
Chris Argyris); and the relationship of reflection-in-action to professional
activity.
