Despite a number of critics, Senge’s The Fifth Discipline: The Art and Practice of the Learning Organization is one of the best-selling books on management of all time. This chapter revisits Senge’s learning organization by looking at how the idea has been conceptualized since its publication. Consequently, it aims to further develop a more holistic model of Senge’s learning organization philosophy that can enable systematic evaluation of the process of creating a learning organization. In detail, it attempts to develop all possible antecedents for the five disciplines of a learning organization, namely personal mastery, mental models, team learning, shared vision, and systems thinking mainly based on what has been developed in the literature so far. This conceptual framework is expected to assist both practitioners and researchers in building learning organizations.

Television digitization is an internationally agreed consensus. Government readiness is needed to face the changes and technological developments. One perspective that can be used to face television digitalization is by forming a learning organization. Basically, learning organizations formed by the government involving all stakeholders will produce readiness in television digitalization, although challenges and obstacles are often found in the formation of these learning organizations. Constraints faced can be in the form of legal issues in the form of lawsuits and resistance due to lack of learning and the involvement of all parties in technological change. This paper uses the method of analysis of literature studies through books, journals, reports, and publications related to government readiness in facing television digitalization in accordance with the perspective of the learning organization. The results of the analysis indicate that the perspective of the learning organization can be one of the solutions to face television digitalization, such as the formation of a task force that is being carried out by the government by involving all stakeholders as a forum for learning. Besides that the government is trying to prepare its organization to face television digitalization with several efforts such as drafting the government's version of the Broadcasting Law; developing guidelines for digital broadcasting blueprints; establishment of working groups for the preparation of analog to digital TV migration; conducting socialization and promotion; conducting studies on the preparation of digital TV business opportunities to the stipulation of Ministerial Decrees on Digital Broadcast Trials.

Namun, gasab yang merupakan sikap yang kurang terpuji, masih menjadi trend di beberapa pesantren. Untuk mengubah kebiasaan tersebut, maka perlu adanya organisasi pembelajaran yang dapat mengubah karakter buruk santri tersebut. Agar organisasi pembelajaran dapat berjalan secara efektif maka dibutuhkan 1) visi bersama (shared vision), 2) berpikir sistem (system thinking), 3) belajar beregu (team learning), 4) penguasaan pribadi (personal matery), dan 5) model mental (mental models).

Peculiarities of personnel management at such enterprise are offered (special attention is paid to planning of personnel career; flexible and transparent motivation system promoting the introduction of changes and innovations; formation of a certain corporate culture in which training and education are recognized as positive phenomenon at all levels of organizational structure; education of loyalty to the organization among the staff as guarantee of the personnel outflow reduction; attitude to personnel as talents, realized or unrealized, etc.).
