Very interesting, Paul.

In terms of Ashby's Theory of learning (later used by
Argyris and others) the first metaphor represents
single loop learning (I learn something new that fits
well with what I already knew).

The second with double loop learning - I learn
something that imposes that I change my paradigm
(strategies, ideas, mental models).

But this is no longer enough. A there loop learning
process is needed - one that changes the way one
learns (individually and in group). OST acts like a
facilitator for that third level of learning, I think
