Abstract

Even the organization with many inspired and creative individuals working there will find that sometimes the creativity of these individuals may not translate into organizational learning and creativity. For those organizations wanting to maximize the impact of inspired individuals, there would be factors having to do with a culture of learning that might improve the individual-to-organizational translation of ideas, which is the subject of this article.
