Hospitality curricula often reinforce this paradox by emphasizing employability over resilience and sovereignty. This study employs narrative inquiry with Caribbean educators, analyzed through reflexive thematic analysis, to explore curricular practices, systemic constraints, and reformist aspirations. Findings reveal strong endorsement of the Regenerative Capability Pedagogy (ReCaP), a framework grounded in Sen’s Capability Approach and Nussbaum’s notion of human flourishing, across its four dimensions: empathy, capability expansion, sovereignty-building, and resilience. Respondents also identified institutional and structural “capability traps” that constrain transformative reform, underscoring the recursive tension between aspirations for educational sovereignty and systemic fragility. ReCaP operationalizes a spiral curriculum that integrates service foundations, digital fluency, indigenous knowledge, and empathy-driven metrics. It repositions higher education from a mechanism of labor-market compliance to developmental infrastructure capable of cultivating sovereignty and sustainable futures in SIDs. This paper contributes to the literature by extending the Capability Approach into tourism education, theorizing pedagogy as a regenerative capability system, and empirically demonstrating how ReCaP can align curricular practice with resilience and sovereignty in fragile, tourism-dependent societies.</p> Robertico Croes Copyright (c) 2026 2026-04-21 2026-04-21 20 2 1 19 10.55951/nurture.v20i2.1084 https://nurture.org.pk/index.php/NURTURE/article/view/1086 <p>This study aimed to test the relationship model of employee experience in a high-performance work system (HPWS) on innovative work behavior (IWB) mediated by social capital (soc-cap) and psychological capital (psy-cap) and moderated by the need for cognition (NFC). The study was conducted at professional service organizations in major cities in Indonesia and data were collected using a questionnaire, including a total of 712 respondents. Factor analysis and internal consistency were used to test the validity and reliability of the questionnaire. The results of the correlation test showed a positive and significant relationship between variables. Furthermore, the relationship model test using structural equation modeling (SEM) with a two-step method showed that soc-cap and psy-cap mediated the influence of employee HPWS experience on IWB. This study also found that NFC moderated the relationship model. Professional service needs to develop HPWS to enhance IWB through soc-cap and psy-cap for employee with high NFC.</p> Dorothea Wahyu Ariani Sri Handayani Copyright (c) 2026 2026-04-23 2026-04-23 20 2 20 33 10.55951/nurture.v20i2.1086
