Abstract

To mark Edgar H. Schein’s 90th birthday, a metalogue between him and David Coghlan took place to explore selected themes of their shared organization development scholarship. A metalogue is a reflective dialogue where the mode of conversation reflects the topic being explored. The themes explored are interiority, a philosophy of practical knowing, and inquiring in the present tense. The aim of the article is both celebratory and exploratory, with the latter seeking to offer readers insights from the metalogue on some core themes in the exercise of the applied behavioral science of organization development and to advance the notion of metalogue as an approach to shared inquiry.
