Instead, he should have presented only his conclusions. This critique, however, inspired Umberto Eco with the idea that ‘Every scientific book should be ... the report of a quest for some Holy Grail.’ This ‘quest’ presupposes engagement on both sides of a knowledge transfer. Built upon our own research, we shall provide a model-theoretic scheme within the bounds of management to support the practicability of Eco’s claim. The idea of the method we introduce is to re-create engagement in establishing problem-solving competence in managerial learning: We start with an analysis of case-studies about successful managerial problem solutions where abstractions and explanations occur. Next, we attempt to find a common denominator between the successful solutions. Lastly, we analyze re-placement, i.e. the re-instantiating of the principles found in the previous step by applying them in new problem situations, and thus providing new uses for them.
