Organizational metacognition is knowing what an organization knows,[1] a concept related to metacognition, organizational learning and sensemaking used to describe how organizations and teams develop an awareness of their own thinking,[2] learning how to learn.[3][4][5]

The organizational deutero-learning concept identified by Argyris and Schon[6][7] has also been described as learning how to learn[8] through a process of collaborative inquiry and reflection (evaluative inquiry). Visser (2007) reviewed and reformulated the concept of deutero-learning as, "the behavioral adaptation to patterns of conditioning in relationships in organizational contexts, distinguishing it from meta-learning and planned learning" (pg. 659)[9]
