1 Personal mastery: It is the discipline of continually clarifying and deepening our personal
vision, of focusing our energies, of developing patience, and of seeing reality objectively. Mental
models: These are deeply ingrained assumptions, generalizations, or even pictures or images that
influence how we understand the world and how we take action. Shared Vision: If any one idea about
leadership has inspired organizations for thousands of years, it's the capacity to hold a shared picture of
the future we seek to create. The practice of shared vision involves the skills of unearthing shared
"pictures of the future" that foster genuine commitment and enrollment rather than compliance. In
mastering this discipline, leaders learn the counter productiveness of trying to dictate a vision, no matter
how heartfelt. Team Learning: The discipline of team learning starts with "dialogue," the capacity of
members of a team to suspend assumptions and enter into a genuine "thinking together." The discipline
of dialogue also involves learning how to recognize the patterns of interaction in teams that undermine
learning. Team learning is vital because teams, not individuals, are the fundamental learning unit in
modern organizations.
