Purpose

The purpose of SOL –BR is to be a Brazilian learning community oriented to unveil, integrate, sow and implement theories and practices for the interdependent development of people and organizations.

Guiding Principles of SoLBrazil

Drive to Learn- All human beings and communities are born with an innate, lifelong desire and ability to learn, which should be enhanced by all organizations.

Learning is Social- People learn best from and with one another, and participation in learning communities is vital to their effectiveness, well-being and happiness in any work setting.

Learning Communities- The capacities and accomplishments of organizations are inseparable from, and dependent on, the capacities of the learning communities which they foster.

Aligning with Nature- It is essential that organizations evolve to be in greater harmony with human nature and with the natural world.

Global Interdependence- It is important to reinforce the social web with gratitude, valorization and mutual support.

Diversity – Diversity of concepts, experiences and talents represents the potential richness of an organization; and as so, must be a source to enrich individual and organizational learning.

Living Organizations – The alignment between purpose and vision, personal and organizational values, with brand and strategies creates living organizations. These Organizations are constantly evolving to nurture the true needs and desires of the organization and its people by learning and un-learning.
