Teaming demonstrates organizations learn when the versatile, liquid collaborations they encompass have the ability to learn. The web clubs, and other active teams, don't learn obviously. Edmondson describes the factors that prevent them from doing this, such as social fear, irrational values about failure, groupthink, problematic electric power dynamics, and information hoarding.
