This paper’s proposition is that, as the concept of managerial and work identity and the meaning of a production of knowledge transforms, so too must the processes for management education and development. A new “Artful Learning Wave Trajectory Model” is presented for use in exploring the nature of learning processes facilitated by ‘artful’ capability building. The Model proposes a different approach to current ‘arts-in-business’ in management education and development. It is suggested that this alternative process will assist those in higher education domains create a culture of awareness and creativity for enacting ‘good’ theories in management and management education practice.
