Barriers to organizational learning: An integration of theory and research
基于扩展的4I模型,分类并讨论了阻碍组织学习的各种障碍,分析了这些障碍对不同组织单元的影响、与单环和双环学习的关系,以及典型障碍组合对组织绩效的影响。
This paper develops a theoretical foundation to describe and explain impediments to organizational learning (OL). Based on the expanded 4I model ( Crossan et al . 1999 . Academy of Management Review , 24 , 522–537), which was further developed by Lawrence et al . (2005 . Academy of Management Review , 30 , 180–191), different learning barriers are categorized and discussed with regard to factors complicating or impeding OL. Finally, the paper analyses the impact of particular barriers on different kinds of organizational units, the relationship between OL barriers, single‐loop and double‐loop learning, as well as typical combinations of barriers and their respective impact on organizational performance.
