Creative Knowledge
Creative knowledge involves the innate and the acquired
components of innovating something new that has lasting
value to the organization and to the society.
On the interactive dimensions of dormant and active
creative knowledge, negative and positive organizational
learning modes, and simple and complex managerial
cognitions, first of all, the barren organizational
knowledge state is identified (Figure 4). In this state, the
dormant creative knowledge, negative organizational
learning mode, and simple cognitions result in the emergence
of knowledge processes. The organizational processes
are devoid of any creative activity and they are
wholly dominated by routine procedures of administrative
matters that are mechanical and not at all enthusing
to the participants. This is the state that is most
characteristic of bureaucratic organizations.
