| Abstract: | This thesis investigated the role of trust and power in simple learning and strategic learning transparency initiatives. The results indicate that there is a distinct difference in what is necessary before and during each form of cooperation. Simple learning is the exchange of more simple information, and strategic learning is the exchange of more strategic knowledge. Trust within simple learning is heavily influenced by personal relationships, and within strategic learning there is no influence of personal relationships. In these partnerships there is a bigger influence of the length of working together and reciprocity. In terms of power there is also a difference, in simple learning situations it is acceptable to sometimes use a better power position. Within strategic learning situations there is much more emphasis on equality and the length of working together, this means that using a better power position can harm the relationship harder than if this would happen in a simple learning situation. Therefore power shouldn’t be used in partnerships that correspond with strategic learning. |
