| Abstract: | Ideas are a central ingredient of organizational life and ideation is an essential faculty that propels every management action. Yet, little is known about how ideation is manifested and managed. This study employes the philosophies of transcendentalism, process and interactionism to provide insights into the empirical referents of idea management. These referents are used as a point of departure in the interpretations of this study. Rather than studying idea management in terms of lists of categories, continua of characteristics or details about process, the exploration focuses on its systemic nature and the inter-relatedness of idea generation, problem solving and inquiry are investigated. |
