| Summary: | This case highlights the long-term effects of major technological changes on a manufacturing organization and on the motivation and innovative potential of its employees. The case describes a 'lean' facility, which emphasizes Science and Technology-driven (STI) innovations, as opposed to Doing-Using-Interacting (DUI) innovations. The former is based on centralized, R&D-driven, codified knowledge and generally reflects a more rigid, hierarchical organizational structure. The latter is based on hands-on, or tacit, knowledge for problem-solving, and generally reflects informal communication lines and a more decentralized and horizontal organizational structure, typical of a 'learning' type of organization. |
