Keywords:
organizational learning, good practices, strategic management, adaptive management, institutional planningAbstract
This article develops the main findings in the field of governmental development project planning based on a case analysis related to the fourth section of MEAL concerning learning. The main objective is to contrast the tools and best practices that the institution conducts and applies in each planning stage of the development projects executed within a specific area. Three semi-structured interviews were conducted at each hierarchical level of the governmental institution, which participate in each phase and coordinate the strategic and operational planning of the Ministry; likewise, a literature search was conducted to reinforce the theory of the concepts and triangulate the data obtained. The results show that within the institution, they use other tools, techniques, and methods to develop projects in each of their phases and achieve the proposed objectives; however, it is also important to highlight the applied concepts related to the fourth section of MEAL regarding learning, best practices, and strategic direction within a governmental entity. The incorporation of organizational learning in the management of projects and development programs within the public institution is intrinsically related to the specific phases of MEAL in the application of the different methodologies studied since the concepts related to learning are applied in this particular scientific research, so its practical use is concluded in the present case study.
