About our Company

"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams."

-- Eleanor Roosevelt

How can our "team-learning tool" help you? Ask yourself this question. What executive would not want a more collaborative, innovative and knowledgeable team, coupled with a comprehensive backbone of clearly defined best practices? Our printable e-Book, Enlightened Leadership, will show you and your management team how empowering it is to always be able to see the larger picture and the interrelationship of all the parts of your business.

We established Learning House Publishing, Inc. in October 2003 to publish Enlightened Leadership: Best Practice Guidelines and Timesaving Tools for Easily Implementing Learning Organizations. Our "learning organization" management model and process creates the means for businesses to grow through Systematic Innovative Management (SIM) or "disciplined innovation."

We developed and published Enlightened Leadership as a printable Adobe e-Book based on the premise that most companies prefer to "do-it-themselves" when planning and implementing change and improvement. Therefore, we designed Enlightened Leadership to be self-explanatory, simple to execute and self-sustaining in nature. We believe that most any leader and manager can use our team-learning tool on their own, and in many different ways to guide their organization's growth and improve upon its productivity.

Some companies may prefer to have an independent facilitator oversee the implementation process and perhaps provide ongoing coaching services. We believe that should be the extent of their services. On the other hand, you may want an outside facilitator to help you conduct an "independent" organizational and/or operational survey for purposes of problem identification, analysis and solution. Independent facilitators can also collaborate with you to develop action plans. Still, however, our mission, that is to say, the mission of Learning House Publishing, Inc. is to provide small and mid-size firms with the sorely needed "best practice guidelines and timesaving tools" to enable them to easily create a learning organization.
