People In Social Organisations And Enterprises. Motivation, Knowledge Transfer And Situated Learning In Their Communities Of Practice

This book functions as a research monograph about people. Specifically why and how do people help others? What do they do, how and why do they get involved, who do they learn from, and teach, also what do they learn and share? Restating this research question in academic English: What motivates individuals to join and take part in social enterprise? and other organizations, what behaviours do they exhibit, do they join or form groups that can be labelled as ?ommunities of practice? and do they undertake and deliver situated learning, as part of their knowledge transfer processes? The topic has been studied qualitatively via interpretative phenomenological analysis and related methodologies. Over 30 interviews, from disparate groups in the UK and Poland have been analysed in depth. The outcome has been to identify common factors in individuals behaviours, motivations and interactions.
