AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF
Christopher J. Borne for the degree of Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies presented on June 12, 2010. Title: Personal Legacy: Bridging Generational Conflict and Organizational Intelligence.
Abstract approved: _______________________________________________________
Debrah Bokowski, Thesis Advisor
This thesis investigates the concept of personal legacy and its capacity to enable a confluence of three powerful organizational dynamics: individual well-being, intergenerational conflict, and the transfer of organizational knowledge. Personal legacy addresses an essential dimension of human experience: to embody a sense of meaning and enduring worth as human beings. It also serves as a vehicle for transferring knowledge from one generation to the next. However, within organizations, defining and agreeing on what constitutes relevant, transferable knowledge persists as primal issues of intergenerational conflict. The interdisciplinary review of literature explores personal legacy through the academic lenses of adult development, generational theory, intergenerational conflict, and narrative identity theory. A synthesis of the literatures indicates that personal legacy, the transfer of knowledge, and intergenerational conflict are interrelated. Discussion and implications propose that personal legacies provide organizations effective, flexible media for realizing, retaining, and transferring organizational intelligence.
