The Commit-Act-Reflect Cycle

The commit-act-reflect cycle is the action-reflection rhythm at the core of Action Learning, expressed as its three operating moves. Participants commit to a specific action, take that action in their real work between meetings, and reflect on what the action produced before committing to the next action. The cycle compounds across a multi-session program as each reflection feeds the next commitment. Revans's *L = P + Q* formula operationalizes through this cycle — the questioning insight that produces learning emerges from the reflection stage specifically.
