“…The results show that most of the respondents, as school members, believe in the organization's work. Shared vision as dimensions of learning organization helps elementary school teachers to perform efficiently with their clientele (Kaiser, Fahrenbach, & Martinez, 2021). Using these approaches, it is possible to effectively motivate and encourage the school management unit to generate a true vision and mission and increase performance and harmony.…”

The study focused on the extent of work culture and learning organization practices in promoting work productivity among public elementary school teachers at the San Francisco District School System, Division of San Pablo City for the School Year 2020-2021. A total of 163 teacherrespondents were used in the study. Frequency percentage, standard deviation, and the mean were used to assess the level of manifestations among variables. In addition, Pearson correlations were employed to identify positive relationships of work culture and learning organization practices to work productivity. Findings revealed work culture was highly observed and learning organization was highly practiced among public elementary school teachers. Similarly, respondents in the San Francisco District show a high level of work productivity in effective teaching and work commitment. Furthermore, there is a moderate relationship between work productivity and work culture (supportive, innovative, and bureaucratic). Finally, there was a moderate to strong association between learning organizational practices and work productivity. The findings implied that work culture and learning organization practices are critical since they directly impact on attracting and maintaining people. The positive work relationships that occur at the workplace represent a positive environment. As a result of its ability to do so, the school can stay ahead of the curve in terms of change and competition, resulting to higher productivity.

“…By crafting a forward-looking vision, corporate foresight has the potential to harmonize the strategic (exploratory) and operational (exploitative) facets, thus fostering an integrated organizational system. A collective vision of the future, developed through extensive involvement across diverse organizational divisions, facilitates a unified perspective (Kaiser et al, 2021).…”

A collective vision of the future, developed through extensive involvement across diverse organizational divisions, facilitates a unified perspective (Kaiser et al, 2021). This approach narrows the gap between short‐term and long‐term objectives, encouraging mutual recognition and collaboration between the different facets of the organization for its overarching success.…”

Corporate foresight involves strategically exploring multiple potential futures and serves as a tool to guide organizational decision‐making processes. Despite its significance, a predominant focus on immediate, short‐term issues often characterizes the operational mindset of many companies. As a result, companies frequently encounter challenges in achieving organizational ambidexterity—the ability to balance and leverage both the exploitation of current capabilities and the exploration of new opportunities in the future. In this paper, we propose a theoretical investigation of corporate foresight. We develop a conceptual framework that delineates different relationships between corporate foresight and organizational ambidexterity, providing a structured approach to understand how these concepts interact and influence each other. Our framework proposes three ways corporate foresight can significantly enhance ambidexterity within organizations. First, corporate foresight can be pivotal in identifying and analyzing future trends and disruptions, which can inform strategic decision‐making. Secondly, corporate foresight can better align an organization's long‐term strategic goals and short‐term operational objectives, thus enhancing ambidexterity. Finally, corporate foresight can bridge different organizational units, promoting collaboration and knowledge sharing, aiding in developing a holistic approach to strategic planning that encompasses daily operational excellence and future‐oriented strategic posture.

“…A shared corporate vision best describes organizational members' common knowledge of the firm's strategic goals and future business orientations (Eldor, 2019). As such, a shared vision is often the result of a collaborative effort between senior management, middle management, and employees within the organization (Kaiser et al, 2021).…”

Purpose The purpose of this study is to uncover the essential conditions for establishing a successful collaboration between the Fairmont Hotel (Makkah) staff and the senior management team to prepare for cocreating a future shared corporate vision. Design/methodology/approach This study is an action research project involving senior managers of the Fairmont Hotel (Makkah) and EHL Hospitality Business School (Lausanne, Switzerland). Data were collected from 16 hotel staff members, covering functional/department managers, team leaders, operations supervisors and operational-level employees. Findings This study uncovered a series of generic proposals made by the hotel staff, which are prerequisites/conditions for successful collaboration with senior management, to prepare for cocreating a future shared vision. Practical implications In response to the staff’s generic proposals, the senior management team proposed practical measures to support continued collaboration between hotel staff and the senior management team. These measures aim to maintain a collaborative approach centered on achieving future common goals and a shared vision to promote sustainable innovation in the services of the Fairmont Hotel (Makkah). Originality/value This study is innovative in two respects. First, it demonstrates a strong willingness on the part of senior management and staff to collaborate less vertically, contrary to the cultural norm in Saudi Arabia, known for its strong hierarchical distance. Second, the mutual commitment to more horizontal collaboration is not typical of five-star hotels, which are traditionally vertical and hierarchical.
