ABSTRACT
The paper identifies what is meant by culture and examines approaches to mapping it, while suggesting alternatives. It notes the global spread of action learning, expressed through the prism of Western values, although practice is not necessarily reflective of the original ethos. It offers some rules of thumb on the use of action learning in different cultural settings and suggests a need for mutual adjustment and for research on action learning in a variety of cultural contexts.
