Abstract
This book has dealt with the realm of organizational epistemology: how and why organizations know. In the organizational epistemology developed in this book, knowledge development is seen as an autopoietic process that is brought forth in organizations through languaging on all scales in a self-similar manner. By now the reader may ask himself: what can inhibit this knowledge development process? In this chapter we point at three sources of impediments to organizational knowledge development:
-
Improbability of communication
-
Barriers to agreement
-
Self-difference
