Abstract

This study focuses on improving organizational problem-solving capabilities through interdependence among organization members. We propose a method to facilitate the members of the organization to actively tackle conservative issues within the organization. We propose a method to diagnose the organizational activation level using the integrated value graph, in terms of whether the organization is actively tackling conservative issues. Regarding the diagnosis and improvement of the level of organizational activation, this study classifies the form of each integrated value graph using a classification table followed by the I-I chart method. The verification process involved getting participants to use the proposed tool. Participants were both male and female, aged from 20s to 50s, and arranged in groups of three; the verification was conducted among a total of 53 participants and the resulting questionnaire responses were compared using A/B testing. Based on the results of this study, we confirm the effectiveness of aligning purpose with and undertaking action for others. Using a series of methods, including the construction and integration of value graphs, leads to an improved level of organizational activation.
