Diese Bachelorarbeit untersucht das Konzept einer Lernenden Organisation in einem projektorientierten Unternehmen. Lernen entfaltet sich auf individueller, Team und organisatorischer Ebene. In projektorientierten Unternehmen bestimmen besondere Merkmale von Projekten wie Lernen erfolgreich Gestalt annehmen kann. Gewisse Lerndiszipline helfen dabei eine lernende Kultur auf allen Ebenen zu verwirklichen.
Diese Bachelorarbeit stellt ein Lernmodel für projektorientierte Unternehmen vor. Es verknüpft den Aspekt von individueller Reflexion mit Wissensmanagement. Durch das Teilen von Wissen können Projektteams in Form von Doppelschleifenlernen lernen, was der gesamten Organisation zugute kommt. Das Lernmodel führt den Kreislauf weiter, in dem das auf organisatorischer Ebene Gelernte wieder durch individuelle Erfahrung getestet wird.
Alle Theorien und Prinzipien werden anhand der Case Study des Hoch- und Tiefbaus des Bauunternehmens Rhomberg Bau GmbH beschrieben. Mit der Wiedereinfährung des Projekthandbuchs wurde die individuelle Reflexion gefördert, in dem kritisch auf den Inhalt des Projekthandbuchs eingegangen wurde und Lessons Learned für zukünftige Projekte verwendet werden. Am Ende dieser Bachelorarbeit wird kritisch hinterfragt, ob Lernen auf die Art und Weise in ein projektorientiertes Unternehmen implementiert werden kann, wie in diesem Werk vorgeschlagen.

Zielsetzung und Themenschwerpunkte (Objectives and Key Themes)
This bachelor thesis aims to develop a learning model for project-based organizations, specifically examining its application within Rhomberg Bau GmbH. The research investigates how individual reflection, knowledge sharing, and organizational learning can be fostered in a project context. The case study analyzes the re-implementation of a project management plan at Rhomberg Bau GmbH as a means to promote these learning processes. * Organizational learning in project environments * A model for fostering individual and organizational learning in projects * Knowledge sharing and its impact on project team learning * Implementation of learning disciplines at individual, team, and organizational levels * Challenges and obstacles to implementing a learning culture in project organizationsZusammenfassung der Kapitel (Chapter Summaries)
1. Introduction: This introductory chapter sets the stage for the thesis. It establishes the background of organizational learning, specifically within project-oriented companies. The chapter clearly defines the aim and purpose of the study, outlining the intention to propose a learning model applicable to project organizations. The structure of the thesis is detailed, providing a roadmap for the reader, and the scope of the study (delimitations) is clearly presented, setting boundaries for the research's focus. 2. The Importance of Organisational Learning: This chapter explores the crucial role of organizational learning in achieving sustainable competitive advantage. It delves into the theoretical foundations of organizational learning, discussing its benefits and its impact on organizational performance. This section likely lays the groundwork for the later development of the proposed learning model by highlighting the importance of continuous learning and adaptation within organizations. 3. Learning in Project Organisations: This chapter focuses on the unique aspects of learning within project organizations. It highlights the key characteristics of projects that influence learning processes and proposes a new learning model specifically tailored to the project environment. This model likely emphasizes individual reflection, knowledge sharing within teams, and the organizational implications of these processes, forming the core framework for the subsequent analysis of the case study. 4. Applying the Learning Model: This chapter delves into the practical application of the proposed learning model, breaking down its key components. It examines how individual experiences are tested, knowledge is shared, and learning is advanced within the framework. The likely discussion of how these aspects interact to create an ongoing cycle of learning is crucial in understanding the thesis’s central argument. 5. Implementing Learning Disciplines at All Levels: This chapter examines the implementation of learning disciplines across individual, team, and organizational levels within the project context. It details specific strategies for fostering learning at each level, exploring how each contributes to overall organizational learning. The synthesis of these multi-level approaches likely highlights the interconnectedness of learning processes across the entire organizational structure. 6. Potential Learning Obstacles in Project Organisations: This chapter addresses the potential challenges and obstacles that organizations may encounter when trying to implement a learning culture. It likely identifies common issues and suggests strategies for overcoming them, adding a critical layer to the overall model. The identification of potential difficulties makes the model more robust and practical. 7. Implementing the Concept of Learning at Rhomberg: This chapter presents a case study of Rhomberg Bau GmbH, focusing on the re-implementation of their project management plan as a means to foster learning. The re-implementation likely serves as a real-world application of the proposed learning model. It describes the methodology used to analyze Rhomberg's experience, providing a concrete example of the model's application. 8. Findings and Recommendations for Rhomberg: This chapter presents the findings from the case study and offers specific recommendations for Rhomberg Bau GmbH based on the analysis. It likely draws connections between the observed outcomes at Rhomberg and the broader implications of the proposed learning model. This serves as a practical conclusion to the research, demonstrating the model’s utility.Schlüsselwörter (Keywords)
