Framework for exploring knowledge creation with hermeneutic phenomenology. Source: Modified from Suorsa and Huotari (2014) Refer to the image caption for details.The framework shows a large rectangular framework labeled “Organizational Environment”. Inside the large rectangle, a triangle divided into four smaller triangles is centered. The central triangle is labeled “HUMAN BEING” and includes the text “Born with certain possibilities” and “Capable of understanding his own being and others”. The upper small triangle is labeled “Present” and contains the words “Encountering” and “Presence”. The left small triangle is labeled “Past” and includes the text “Horizon of expectations” and “Traditions”. The right small triangle is labeled “Future” and includes the text “Open” and “Questionable”. A dashed circle surrounds the triangle and connects to three rectangular boxes placed around its edges. The rectangular box on the left is labeled “HERMENEUTIC CIRCLE AS A STRUCTURE OF THE INTERACTIVE EVENT” and lists four points: “Distanciation”, “Anticipation”, “Correction”, and “Reassessment”. The rectangular box on the right is labeled “CONSTRUCTION OF THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE IN THE INTERACTION” and lists three points: “Three temporal dimensions”, “Communal and shared”, and “Total presence in the course of events”. The rectangular box at the bottom is labeled “MODES OF BEING IN THE INTERACTION” and lists “Reflective”, “Critical”, and “Open”. The large rectangle labeled “ORGANIZATIONAL ENVIRONMENT” encloses both the circular and triangular frameworks and includes four bullet points in the upper right corner: “Productivity”, “Rules and Regulations”, “Organizational culture”, and “Common goals”. From the bottom-right of the triangular and circular framework, a thick rightward arrow extends toward another rectangular box labeled “KNOWLEDGE CREATION”, which includes the text “Inside human being”, “Between human beings”, and “As communities”.
