Hegemonic thinking can be characterized by "single-loop" learning or ideological thinking to achieve pre-defined goals. To actively seek to become attuned to the co-evolutionary sustaining of diversity and innovation for the full development of human life, there is a requirement to question goals and so to engage in "double-loop" learning. Organizations need to consider that learning systems engaged in not only "double-loop" learning of questioning goals but also of transforming goals and processes in accordance with an ethical vision of respect for all lives or "triple-loop" learning. This study attempts to explain the "triple-loop" learnings that requires the trust and autonomy of individuals and teams and thus allowing optimal synergies to emerge within organizations. Organizations can comprise of multiple "shadow spaces" of unique "triple-loop" learning innovation as well as adaptive structures of "double-loop" learning. Moreover, the "shadow spaces" can at best also become sites for mutual learning between multiple cultures. Key to "triple-loop" learning is the skill of acculturation whereby a person can be grounded in their ancestral culture, whilst also constructively, engaging with other cultures to synergize innovation. � Medwell Journals, 2017.
