Title: Chapter 14 Samhandling Under Risk
Description: "This chapter aims to examine how samhandling and concurrent learning
work together. “Concurrent learning” is a form of simultaneous learning, where
many learning processes related to samhandling take place at the same time. Samhandling
and concurrent learning are also functional processes, in the sense that
learning also occurs through daily interaction activities or actions. At the same time,
concurrent learning and samhandling are interdependent and they are, therefore, in
a sense part of the same process (hence concurrent learning). The chapter identifies
five factors identified as important to samhandling and concurrent learning. These
are: (1) Awareness of basic assumptions regarding people; relations and teamwork
are essential; (2) Space, (3) Giving of themselves, (4) Making processes transparent
and addressing problems as early as possible, and (5) Reflection as a key to samhandling
and concurrent learning. Samhandling and concurrent learning represent a
mindset, a way of working and a form of learning, which together help to meet and/
or develop the skills needed to tackle the challenges of flexible organizations."
