I wrote something based on a similar premise after reading the 2009 CLO Intelligence Report Executive Summary which I don't feel reflects a fast enough change in the mindset of L&D: http://orbitalrpm.com/2009/2009-clo-intelligence-report-no-seat-at-the-table-with-this-data/ I agree completely with the premise of your alpha idea, Jay.

Is there an assumption that by connecting with others and peer learning, one would eventually uncover these blind spots?

I think one of the keys to managers pulling learning is the quality of the feedback (formal or informal) they get on thier performance and their ability to envision another way of doing things. My business supports the informal pull approach and we have loads of evidence of how to make it work successfully, but there is still a time when you need to take an employee out of the work place and immerse them in an experience to change their perception and fundamental understanding. We look at three levels of learning: 1) Just-in-time = pull 2) Explore = pull (I've got a bit of time and this is important and I'm willing to explore the learning) 3) Deep dive = more formal learning where the learner is immersed in the learning often outwith the work place. Finally, the more the learner realises that improvement is required and the more important the need to learn and perform better, the more they will pull learning towards them. Obvious but often forgotten. good luck Jay a book about performance that explodes the myths is long overdue and I agree with your synopsis above.
