Chapter 9 in Organizational Innovation by Integrating Simplification, 2015, pp 135-162 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract In this chapter the added value of the Integrating Simplification Theory (IST) for the management field of organizational innovation will be argued. We have seen that Integrating Simplification comprises of principles that refer to aspects of perception of available information, seeking additional information and synthesizing the information in such a way that practices are simplified. This can be reviewed at the individual level of the nurse and nurse assistant, for example and at the organizational level of information processing and implementation by focusing on the process of knowledge creation in organizations and how this works in the five dimension of Integrating Simplification. These five dimensions; Attunement to the Client, Craftsmanship, Intrapreneurial Team Freedom, Pragmatic ICT solutions and Leading a Higher Purpose, refer to building trustful customer relationship, entrepreneurial aspects of creating and innovating and the managerial aspects of motivation and organization. These are topics that almost all types of organizations experience. The IST will be discussed in the light of the Knowledge Theory, Vedic Theory on Knowledge Creation and Subtle Knowledge, and Effectuation Theory.
