Abstract: Literature review, performed in an agile
way, is useful for tapping into the repertoire of academic literature for busy
learners, e.g. part-time MBA students. This article gives an illustration on an
agile literature review exercise that examines the research theme of “how
managerial intellectual learning can promote creativity”. Six
categories of academic ideas were gathered on the “what” and “how” of managerial
intellectual learning (MIL) and creativity, as well as their
relatedness. More importantly, the agile literature review exercise
offers an illustration on how an agile literature review can be performed in sync
with busy managerial scholar-practitioners’ pace of life; this article
demonstrates this method’s value for research work and deep-level intellectual
learning purposes.
Key
words: agile literature review, creativity,
intellectual learning, managerial intellectual learning (MIL), literature
review.
Introduction
Literature
review skill is an important one for intellectual learning. It is a crucial
skill that university students, e.g. in social sciences, are taught to master
in their tertiary education. Nevertheless, most students that this writer, as
lecturer on business and housing studies, comes across have difficulties to
learn literature review skills. In response to this learning concern, the
writer has been working on an approach to do literature review in an agile way,
called the agile literature review approach (ALRA) (Ho, 2018a; 2018b). This
article is an account to illustrate how to do literature review in an agile way
with regard to a research task of the writer. The research task is “how
managerial intellectual learning (MIL) (Ho, 2013; 2014) can foster creativity
and engaged intellectual learning”. In this specific literature review context,
MIL is a research topic propounded by this writer while research interest on
creativity and engaged intellectual learning arise from the writer’s teaching,
notably on the subject of entrepreneurship and innovation.
Academic
ideas on intellectual learning and creativity as found via the agile literature
review exercise
The
prime literature review exercise direction is clear here, which is to gather
and learn academic ideas that shed light on how managerial intellectual
learning can foster creativity as well as promote intellectual learning
engagement for management scholar-practitioners[1].
To achieve that, additional ideas about intellectual learning and creativity
learning per se are also relevant. Learning about them constitutes a
secondary objective of this agile literature review exercise. Being agile in
this review exercise context means being nimble, evolutionary and responsive,
without ceding the commitment to deep-level intellectual learning[2].
It is thus not meant to be a one-time exercise that is comprehensive and
vigorous. Rather, an agile literature review exercise is intended to in sync
with the ongoing intellectual learning pace of busy practitioners, such as the
management professionals studying for an MBA degree programme.
This
literature review exercise took two days to perform in March 2021. The academic
ideas collected and examined are grouped into five categories to facilitate
intellectual learning and reflection on them. The six categories are: (1)
nature of creativity, (2) factors affecting creativity, (3) creativity
learning/ promotion methods, (4) nature of intellectual learning, (5) factors
affecting intellectual learning and (6) intellectual learning methods. The
literature search is done on Google Scholar as well as two UK University
e-libraries. The literature review findings are presented in Table 1 as
follows:
Table
1: A set of gathered
academic ideas related to managerial intellectual learning (MIL) for
creativity, grouped in six categories
Categories |
Academic ideas |
1.1 Nature of creativity |
“Most researchers have defined creativity
with two key elements that have stayed consistent for more than six decades
(see, e.g. Barron, 1955; Guilford, 1950; Stein, 1953). The first pillar
of this definition is that creativity must represent something new or
different. But novelty is not
enough; to be creative, there is also an expectation of task appropriateness or usefulness. Both of these concepts are
necessary for something to be creative” (Beghetto and Kaufman, 2014). |
1.2 Nature of creativity |
“The concept is generally defined as the
ability to create novel and valuable ideas (Kolb, 2014; Piffer, 2012), and as
a form of insight acquired through
reorganizing problems (Mayer, 1995) that is essential to stimulating
knowledge growth (Poon, Au, Tong, & Lau, 2014). Educators generally
emphasize the changeable elements as an important ability to possess” (Huang,
2019). |
1.3 Nature of creativity |
“The recent Australian focus on ‘generic
skills’ and ‘graduate attributes’ suggests that creativity can be seen as an ‘attitude’ (Central Queensland
University), as a ‘way of thinking’ (Macquarie University and University of
Western Australia) or as a component part of a suite of workplace skills
(University of Canberra). What is surprising is that the relationships between
these ideas about creativity and learning are not explicitly teased out”
(Reid and Petocz, 2004). |
1.4 Nature of creativity |
“If we consider that creativity is a
characteristic of a certain type of person, or people with certain sorts of
personalities and behaviours, then it would be a simple matter to choose only
students in our courses who had specific personality traits. Theories of
creativity that support this idea look for the determinants of
creative thinking. …. Jungian theory describes four mind types that may be related to
different styles of creative processes. …..” (Reid and Petocz, 2004). |
1.5 Nature of creativity |
“Past research mainly investigated
creativity as an outcome variable of individual or teamwork, as ‘creative performance’ or ‘the
creativity inherent in the delivered performance’ (Anderson, Potočnik,
and Zhou 2014; Gilson and Shalley 2004)” (Boon, Vangrieken and Dochy, 2016). |
1.6 Nature of creativity |
“Gilson and Shalley define team creative processes as ‘members working together in such
a manner that they link ideas from multiple sources, delve into unknown areas
to find better or unique approaches to a problem, or seek out novel ways of
performing a task’ (2004, 454)” (Boon, Vangrieken and Dochy, 2016). |
1.7 Nature of creativity |
“Creativity can be defined as the
development of ideas about products,
services, practices, processes, and procedures that are judged to be (a)
original and novel, and (b) appropriate and potentially useful” (Joo, Yang
and McLean, 2014). |
1.8 Nature of creativity |
“… individual and group creativity is
the starting point of innovation.
Nevertheless, a successful innovation also depends on other components such
as transfer of technology” (Sutanto, 2017). |
2.1 Factors affecting creativity |
“Various factors influence the development of
creative potential, including everything from individual differences to the kinds of experiences and opportunities
that creators experience throughout the lifespan” (Beghetto and Kaufman,
2014). |
2.2 Factors affecting creativity |
“Creativity is an inherent part of the everyday
human experience. Certain conditions make it more or less likely to be
expressed, but human creativity is
resilient. It can bounce back even from seemingly systematic efforts to
suppress it…” (Beghetto and Kaufman, 2014). |
2.3. Factors affecting creativity |
“To Sternberg and Lubart, creativity is the confluence of six factors: intellectual
abilities, knowledge, intellectual styles, personality, motivation, and
environmental context” (Zhang, 2015). |
2.4 Factors affecting creativity |
“Although it is undeniable that creativity
stems from individual ability, whether or not individual creativity is
motivated and implemented into a final product or service is a function of
the work environment, or the contextual characteristics that may be involved
in stimulating and supporting creativity (Amabile 1988, 1996; Lubart 1999;
Shalley, Zhou, and Oldham 2004). As Shalley and Gilson (2004) suggested, the major components of the contextual
characteristics can be categorized into job, group, and
organizational-level factors. These are all in the realm of management in
general and human resource development (HRD) in particular” (Joo, Yang and
McLean, 2014). |
2.5 Factors affecting creativity |
“… continuous learning, system
connection, and embedded system are closely associated with the contextual mechanism, which leads to
learning organization, whereas dialogue and inquiry, team learning,
empowerment, and strategic leadership are more related to the organizational learning
process. Despite the possible link between learning culture and employee creativity, however, little
research has investigated the relationship between the two constructs” (Joo,
Yang and McLean, 2014). |
3.1 Creativity learning/ promotion methods |
“Educators generally emphasize the
changeable elements as an important ability to possess. Creativity can be
enhanced through training (Rose & Lin, 1984; Scott, Leritz, &
Mumford, 2004; Torrance, 1972) and corresponding strategies have been developed
(Fasko, 2001; Horng, Tsai, & Chung, 2016). Among these strategies is the Remote Associates Test (RAT), which
requires participants to think divergently while considering various possible
associations and then think convergently to determine the most suitable answer”
(Huang, 2019). |
3.2 Creativity learning/ promotion methods |
“There are ‘‘multiple forms of creativity’’,
according to Lehrer (2012, pp. XVIII-XIX), and ‘‘we are inspired by other
people’’. Creativity is thus often a result of collaboration between people with different backgrounds and
perspectives. One approach for facilitating learning of creativity in
teams is the so-called ‘‘camp model’’
(Bager, 2011)” (Boge, 2012). |
3.3 Creativity learning/ promotion methods |
“Yet, although individuals do produce
relatively more ideas, the ideas produced by teams tend to be more creative (Mumford et al. 2001). One of the
reasons for this may be that team members can collectively reason with and
build further on a shared idea and, in doing so, come up with new, highly original ideas” (Boon,
Vangrieken and Dochy, 2016). |
3.4 Creativity learning/ promotion methods |
“As teaching
is acknowledged as a creative activity,
there is an expectation that creativity is addressed in Initial Teacher
Education (ITE) programmes but, as noted by Craft (2006), there is a tendency
for it to be neglected in undergraduate education courses” (Watson, 2018). |
3.5 Creativity learning/ promotion methods |
“Universities are called upon to become
centres for creativity and innovation at the heart of the knowledge economy”;
they are encouraged to produce graduates with creative and problem solving
skills required in the twenty-first century. However, the rigid education system within which
teachers and teacher educators work makes it difficult, if not impossible, to
introduce elements of creativity into their practice” (Watson, 2018). |
4.1 Nature of intellectual learning |
“Some research has shown that individuals
favor different learning styles depending on personal preferences or
environmental differences (James & Gardner, 1995; Ozata & Keskin,
2014; Park, 1997). The concept of distinct
learning styles first gained credibility in the mid-20th century
(Boyle, 1995; Nevo Hawk & Shah, 2007). Fleming and Mills (1992) used the
VARK system, which defines four learning styles: visual learning-oriented,
aural learning-oriented, read/write text learning-oriented, and
kinesthetic-oriented (Klement, 2014)” (Huang, 2019). |
4.2 Nature of intellectual learning |
“Intellectual
styles, an encompassing term for such constructs as cognitive style,
learning style, mind style, thinking style, and teaching style, refer to people’s preferred ways of processing
information and dealing with tasks. In Zhang and Sternberg’s
(2005) Threefold Model of Intellectual Styles, all existing styles are
classified into three types: Type I, Type II, and Type III styles.1 Type I
intellectual styles suggest preferences for tasks that provide low degrees of
structure, that require individuals to process information using more complex
thinking, and that allow originality and high degrees of autonomy to do
things in one’s own way. …. Type II intellectual styles denote preferences
for tasks that are structured, that allow individuals to process information
in a more simplistic manner, and that require conformity to traditional ways
of doing things and high levels of respect for authority. ….. Type III styles
may manifest the characteristics of either Type I or Type II styles,
depending on the stylistic demands of a specific situation” (Zhang, 2015). |
4.3 Nature of intellectual learning |
“Resnick and Nelson-LeGall (1997) identify a
number of characteristics of those who value
intellectual activity. Such individuals, they claim, believe they have the right (and the obligation) to
understand things and make things work…[and] that problems can be analyzed,
that solutions often come from such analysis and that they are capable of
that analysis. (pp. 149–150)” (Kuhn, 2002). |
4.4 Nature of intellectual learning |
“Intellectual
ability is regarded here as the
acquired repertoire of general cognitive skills that is available to a person
at a particular point of time (Humphreys, 1968; Snow & Lohman, 1984). As
Anderson (1996, p. 356) phrased it, ‘‘intelligence is the simple accrual and
tuning of many small units of knowledge that in total produce complex
cognition” (Prins, Veenman and Elshout, 2006). |
4.5 Nature of intellectual learning |
“Imagine that there is a fundamental
learning experience. It is at once
emotional and intellectual, mental and physical, social and personal, totally
unique yet freely shared. There is a communal place where this experience
becomes positively energized and charged. This is the kind of experience
which I call "deep learning””
(Bentz, 1992) |
4.6 Nature of intellectual learning |
“The knowledge
sought in intellectual learning is an interested knowledge. It does not
claim ethical neutrality or objectivity. It is knowledge aimed toward the
search for eternal values (or, if "eternal" is too grandiose, a
return to classical values) such as goodness, truth, beauty, and justice. Intellectual learning is socially and
politically responsible knowledge. Emotional learning is more simply a
love for the fullness of human expression, or awareness of human spirit”
(Bentz, 1992). |
4.7 Nature of intellectual learning |
“Drucker and Freud seem to agree on one thing:
the goal of learning and/ or analysis is the renewal of the knowing subject. In other words, for them,
there is something inherently therapeutic in the act of learning; though,
needless to say, there are no guarantees in the act of learning” (Srinivasan,
2007). |
5.1 Factors that affect intellectual learning |
“Unrecognized and unacknowledged emotions
negatively effect one's ability to be present and to act effectively and
efficiently. Following the lead of Gregory Bateson (1972, see also Rieber,
1989), Satir stresses the importance of congruent communications for
self-esteem and good relationships. Congruent
communication is defined as being in touch with one's own feelings and
verbalizing them in a direct but unaggressive manner” (Bentz, 1992). |
5.2 Factors that affect intellectual learning |
“The synthesis
of intellectual and emotional learning is an attempt to get beyond the
false dichotomizations of the two. Emotions are not "error
factors," or "disturbances" in a rational process. Rather they
are a driving force in social action” (Bentz, 1992). |
5.3 Factors that affect intellectual learning |
“… students with higher cognitive
ability (quicker learners), and those who are more hard-working and
well-organized (higher Conscientiousness) tend to perform better in
educational settings. That is, ability and effort are important determinants
of academic achievement; however, their application is driven by a third, to
date often overlooked factor: intellectual
curiosity” (Von Stumm, Hell, and Chamorro-Premuzic, 2011). |
5.4 Factors that affect intellectual learning |
“Conscientiousness
has been repeatedly shown to be positively related to the academic
performance of university students (e.g., Chamorro-Premuzic & Furnham,
2003a, 2003b, 2006; Poropat, 2009) as well as to several job performance
criteria across a broad range of occupations (Barrick & Mount, 1991;
Chamorro-Premuzic & Furnham, 2010; Salgado, 1997; Tett, Jackson, &
Rothstein, 1991). Conscientiousness is comprised of six facets—Competence
(efficacy), Order (planning ahead), Dutifulness (following rules), Achievement
striving (effort), Self-Discipline, and Deliberation (Costa & McCrae,
1992)—that indicate individual differences in persistence, responsibility,
and effort, all of which are associated with better academic and occupational
performance” (Von Stumm, Hell, and Chamorro-Premuzic, 2011). |
5.5 Factors that affect intellectual learning |
“… knowledge and expertise result from applying
one’s reasoning ability. The direction and strength of such application, in
turn, is directed by so-called investment
traits (Cattell, 1943, 1971)—that is, personality
characteristics that determine where, when and how people apply their mental
capacity. Accordingly, investment traits explain interindividual differences
in the pursuit of learning opportunities such as visiting museums and
galleries, solving riddles and puzzles, and reading the newspapers. Hayes
(1962) suggested that all variation in intelligence resulted from individual
differences in the drive or motivation to pursue learning opportunities” (Von
Stumm, Hell, and Chamorro-Premuzic, 2011). |
5.6 Factors that affect intellectual learning |
"Epistemic
curiosity refers to individual differences in seeking out opportunities
for intellectual engagement, acquiring facts and knowledge, or simply the
“drive to know” (Berlyne, 1954, p. 187), whereas perceptual curiosity is
evoked by visual, auditory, and tactile stimulation and refers to a “drive to
experience and feel” (Berlyne, 1954)” (Von Stumm, Hell, and
Chamorro-Premuzic, 2011). |
6.1 intellectual learning methods |
“…learning
styles differ and it is important for knowledge workers to quickly come
to terms with their style of learning. Some learn by taking notes, some by
writing letters, some by lecturing, etc. If knowledge workers take the
trouble to find out what their cognitive and learning styles are and decide
to work further on improving it, they will see not only a considerable
increase in productivity, but a tremendous sense of ease in the act of
working” (Srinivasan, 2007). |
The
six categories in Table 1 are (1) nature of creativity, (2) factors affecting
creativity, (3) creativity learning/ promotion methods, (4) nature of
intellectual learning, (5) factors that affect intellectual learning and (6)
intellectual learning methods. Academic ideas in categories 1 to 3 inform us
the nature of creativity as well as factors and practices that influence
creativity while those in categories 4 to 6 enrich our understanding on the
nature, influencing factors and methods of intellectual learning. Intellectual
learning involves combining and tuning pieces of knowledge to produce more
complex cognition (item 4.4 of Table 1) so as to understand how to make things
work (item 4.3 of Table 1). Intellectual learning shares a common goal with creativity
that, by definition, cares about “task appropriateness or usefulness” (item 1.1
of Table 1). It is reasonable to perceive creativity as suggestive of a higher
(i.e. more skilful and sophisticated) form of intellectual learning. With such
enrichment of knowledge on intellectual learning and creativity, the writer now
moves on to examine how creativity can be promoted in managerial intellectual
learning (MIL).
How
managerial intellectual learning (MIL) can promote creativity: the agile
literature review findings
The
research subject of managerial intellectual learning (MIL) (Ho, 2013; 2014), as
proposed by the writer, is a subtopic of intellectual learning. It is
individualized intellectual learning on the business management field based on
critical systems thinking, especially using multi-perspective, systems-based
research thinking (Ho, 1996). MIL is formulated for busy management
professionals who aspire to be scholar-practitioners in the field of business
management with the critical systems thinking lens. While critical systems
thinking explicitly endorses creativity learning and creative problem solving,
there is always room for considering academic ideas from non-systems thinking
literature to enhance managerial intellectual learning and creativity outcomes.
In this article, the key attention is on “how managerial intellectual learning
promotes creativity”. This is different from another topic that is related but
outside our scope of discussion, which is “studying the academic literature on
creativity per se with the MIL mode”. Here, it is recognized that the research
goal of gaining more understanding on “how managerial intellectual learning
promotes creativity” is much helped by “standing on the shoulders of giants”.
This is achieved by the agile literature review exercise done by this writer
(re: Table 1 findings). Its main findings, in the form of quotations from a
number of academic articles, (re: Table 1) are as follows:
Findings
as related to the nature of creativity (re: category 1 of Table 1): creativity can be conceived
as: (A) an individual/team outcome variable, e.g., as creative
performance; it possesses 2 main elements, namely, (1) being new or different
and (2) useful for a certain task and (B) ability to create ideas that exhibit
the two elements of (1) and (2). These clarify the meaning of
“creativity” in the research goal of this article on “how managerial
intellectual learning promotes creativity”.
Findings
as related to factors affecting creativity (re: category 2 of Table 1): creativity is affected by (A) kinds of
personal experience and opportunities, (B) intellectual ability and styles, (C)
personality, (D) motivation and (E) environmental context, e.g. organizational
learning culture and processes. Related to our research goal, the findings
specifically point to the relevance of intellectual ability and motivation as
influencing factors on creativity.
Findings
related to creativity learning/ promotion methods (re: category 3 of Table 1): methods on creativity include: (A) exercises/
programmes, to encourage divergent and then convergent thinking, especially in
a team-setting, (B) ways to encourage collaboration by people with diversity of
backgrounds and perspectives, and (C) methods that are aware of the restraining
effects of rigid education systems. Assimilating these creativity methods in
managerial intellectual learning (MIL), especially when the situation allows,
is useful to promote creativity in MIL.
Findings
related to the nature of intellectual learning (re: category 4 of Table 1): (A) there are different learning styles and
intellectual styles on intellectual learning, (B) a key resultant of
intellectual learning is intelligence status, being the accrual and tuning of
many small knowledge units to form a complex cognition, (C) intellectual
learning seek for interested and socially/ politically responsible knowledge,
and (D) an important learning goal, including intellectual learning, is to
achieve personal renewal, which is therapeutic. All these academic ideas in
category 4 can be straightforwardly employed to conceive managerial
intellectual learning (MIL). Doing so conceptually clarifies and enriches the
notion of the “nature of managerial intellectual learning”.
Findings
related to factors affecting intellectual learning (re: category 5 of Table 1): unregulated emotions, cognitive ability,
conscientiousness, [knowledge application] investment traits, and epistemic
curiosity are some of the main factors that affect intellectual learning. In
this respect, these are some of the prime contingency factors that managerial
intellectual learners need to regularly reflect on in tuning and personalising their
managerial intellectual learning approaches. Nevertheless, these factors,
essentially psychological ones, are not the direct objects of investigation in
the MIL research scope.
Findings
related to intellectual learning methods (re: category 6 of Table 1): a learner, including a managerial intellectual
learner, needs to position his/ her learning approach to be compatible his/ her
their learning style, so as to improve his/ her intellectual learning
performance.
On
the whole, the findings clarify (i) the main concepts involved, namely,
intellectual learning (thus also on managerial intellectual learning) and
creativity, (ii) how intellectual learning and creativity (as outcomes, and
ability) are related. The findings point to the major factors (e.g. as points
of leverage, contingency factors, and
content for self-reflection) that need to be considered in managerial
intellectual learning for fostering creativity. The findings enable a more
comprehensive and sophisticated way to study managerial intellectual learning
(MIL), including the various models as produced in the MIL literature. It
should be made clear that MIL as a research subject, albeit focusing on the
individualized mode of deep-level intellectual learning, does not preclude
learners to participate in team-based learning and creative problem-solving nor
denies the value of these activities for gaining managerial intellectual
learning. Next, the writer is going to make some concluding remarks on the
value of this agile literature review exercise.
Concluding
remarks
The
agile literature review exercise on the research topic of “how managerial
intellectual learning promotes creativity” led to a number of findings that
enhance understanding on the research topic. The steps of the agile literature
review exercise demonstrated, including (1) the literature search, (2) academic
ideas categorization and synthesis, and (3) employment to comprehend more
resourcefully on the research topic of “how managerial intellectual learning
promotes creativity”, should be of use to students interested in the subject of
the agile literature review approach (ALRA) (Ho, 2018a; 2018b).
