Our activities are based on the original TROP Methodology© which is the consequence of more than 20 years of the proficient experience in the educational and consulting marketplace. TROP Methodology© is a multidisciplinary approach rooted in Humanistic Psychology (Carl Rogers), Managing the Learning Organization (Peter Senge) and Systems Thinking.

The aim of our Foundation is to link closely the theoretical knowledge with authentic pragmatism – Learning By Doing on the Individual, Team and Organizational level.

“We seek for effective solutions in order to provide true engagement and meaning of sense.”

TROP Methodology©

„An individual cannot be taught actually. There can be only conditions created that enable and support individual’s learning process”.

Dorota Szczepan-Jakubowska

CEO, Grupa TROP

TROP Methodology© is a profound way to support development of people, teams, organizations and their stakeholders. TROP Methodology© is an effective and repeatedly verified method of providing stimulation to activity in people’s professions and environments which objectives are:

/

1

Building of social networks connected by common goals

Building of modern business, non-government and government organizations

TROP Methodology© is based on 3 Pilars:

  1. Striving for Integration of Systems
  2. Learning By Doing
  3. Development Driven by Values

What is Action Learning?

It is organized, multidisciplinary process of knowledge-sharing and common learning as well as the process of creation of solutions and making effective decisions. The true cooperation between people is the basis for the process.

Action Learning can be fulfilled on the individual or team level. The latter one operates through working out the process of setting up goals and their deployment by all team members. Action Learning applies also to the organizational level. Then the whole concept lies in deploying the learning process at the organizational level, the selection of groups and their priorities.

Working with TROP Methodology resembles the contexture or fixing of social network as it works through bringing together the pieces that used to be unassembled before the process. One must remember that the large amount of energy is essential to be put in the integration process and small inattention may annihilate the whole learning process.
