In\u003ci\u003e Learn or Die\u003c\/i\u003e, Edward D. Hess combines recent advances in neuroscience, psychology, behavioral economics, and education with key research on high-performance businesses to create an actionable blueprint for becoming a leading-edge learning organization. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eLearn or Die\u003c\/i\u003e examines the process of learning from an individual and an organizational standpoint. From an individual perspective, the book discusses the cognitive, emotional, motivational, attitudinal, and behavioral factors that promote better learning. Organizationally, \u003ci\u003e Learn or Die\u003c\/i\u003e focuses on the kinds of structures, culture, leadership, employee learning behaviors, and human resource policies that are necessary to create an environment that enables critical and innovative thinking, learning conversations, and collaboration. The volume also provides strategies to mitigate the reality that humans can be reflexive, lazy thinkers who seek confirmation of what they believe to be true and affirmation of their self-image. Exemplar learning organizations discussed include the secretive Bridgewater Associates, LP; Intuit, Inc.; United Parcel Service (UPS); W. L. Gore \u0026amp; Associates; and IDEO.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEdward D.
