Contemporary Challenges in the Study of Organizations
指出组织研究尚无统一范式，提出四个值得深入的研究领域：组织有效性、组织与环境互动、组织学习、组织成长与衰退，并介绍各领域的研究前景。
Much is known about organizations; much remains to be discovered. Acknowledging that a paradigm for guiding the study of organizations has yet to be developed, the present article suggests various areas which might be usefully investigated to improve our understanding of organizations. Taking an eclectic approach, four areas of research interest are discussed: organizational effectiveness, organization-environment interactions, organizational learning, and organizational growth and decline. Research prospects in each area are introduced and reviewed.
