Abstract

This research examines a modern case study and provides analysis of how a current, real-life, start-up company is offering a cognitive performance assessment tool to help individuals and organizations improve their learning and performance. Theoretical constructs of metacognition and servant leadership converge to assist in framing the analysis, and the case study builds on the implications for further research development in these theories. The author uses retrospective literature review to highlight the relevant emerging practice in the corporate and educational world. This qualitative study, with descriptive reporting, was accomplished by literature review and direct observations of this modern company. A pseudonym of KnowCom is used to protect the identity and proprietary of the actual company researched.
