| Descripción: | The three essays in the present dissertation build on and expand the notion of generativity in the context of a learning (i.e., knowledge creating) organization, and learning (i.e., knowledge based) economy in sequential progression with increasing levels of analysis. Essay One advances a view of individuals' learning motivated by their desire to grow, and the role of a generative individual in motivating and supporting such a desire in others to enable collective and cumulative learning processes in a learning organization. Essay Two expands upon Essay One by examining 1) the dominant value of generativity, "caring for the growth of others," as a core value of the organizational culture in a knowledge creating company to proliferate the generative interpersonal relationship examined in Essay One for enhancing the company's knowledge creating capability, and 2) the evolutionary progression from ba to basho that the company makes in order to amplify its internal creative processes through a partnership with a network of others, based on mutual growth and benefits to them by extending caring, beyond the company's organizational boundary. Essay Three empirically verifies the theoretical perspective of Essays One and Two through an in-depth case analysis of Qualcomm using a pattern matching analysis. We subsequently conclude the dissertation by reflecting upon our journey in the context of a view that a good society should enable and support individual constituents to live as contributing members achieving their individual and collective aspirations. |
