In the infructuous learning processes of knowledge creation,
the positive organizational learning mode, the dormant
knowledge state, and simple cognitions result in
the creation of knowledge that is of no actual use to organizational
members. The futility of knowledge generated
in the inappropriate manner makes the state
infructuous. On the active, negative, and complex dimensions,
the knowledge state is expressed as rationallogical,
which implies that the organization has acquired
a massive amount of rational and logical knowledge that
is of little use to the organizational processes. The stored
knowledge which has little intrinsic value is thus nonadaptive
and static as far as the specific organizational
processes are considered to be out of the mode of organizational
learning processes.
The componential state of knowledge is due to the process
of active knowledge state, complex managerial
cognitions, and positive mode of organizational learning
processes. In this state, the organization is better
poised to deal with any kind of future that involves challenges
to the organization. The characteristic of this state
is that the organizational repository of knowledge contains
even detailed and componential aspects of resolving
tricky and complex issues of marketing, finance, etc.
Problem-solving knowledge that is centred on problems
is of the componential and practical nature.
