The paragraph can be rephrased as:

A person's frames of perception and action are narrow in early stages of development. Focused on social membership and technical competence. The early life of the organizations often is focused on survival and efficiency, only later and rarely emphasizing process of learning and development. However in later stages both individual and organization become more concerned with the learning process itself: the way the perceptions and practices are articulated and revised in interactions and how more people can be engaged in mutual learning and inquiry.

Thus, the correct option is E.
