| Description | The main result is to show how an analysis with the help of the modeltheoretic systemic framework LIR (Language - Information - Reality) can be applied to support the coming about of socio-ecologically sound and acceptable, and thus succesful innovation, and in the sequel sustainable development of an organization. The proposed new way both of "documenting" knowledge as well as "arguing" within an organization can help to reach not only better decisions but also new ways of understanding the coming about of, e.g., economic success, and how to balance the local institutional logics of professionals and the proposed managerial decisions effectively. |
