"Action Learning and Virtual Action Learning for Leadership Development." Developing Leaders (1), yet Virtual Action learning (VAL) has always struggled to be seen as a viable alternative, with both facilitators and participants often preferring face-to-face set meetings, and dismissing the technological options Dickenson, Burgoyne, and Pedler. 2010.

"Evaluation of an Action Learning Programme for Leadership Development of SME Leaders in the UK." Action Learning: Research and Practice 6 (2): 131-148. However, the onset of the Covid pandemic saw the rapid implementation of this remote technology-enabled approach, where VAL became the only option for action learning due to the restrictions on face-to-face working and travel limitations. This paper shares insights on the differences facilitating action learning and virtual action learning from a research project, based around a two-year Masters in Leadership programme in a UK business school, now delivered to over 300 experienced senior leaders, predominantly working in the UK NHS and a major UK retailer.
