Self-organized transitions: A pattern amid the chaos of transformative change
基于三家初创企业的深度案例研究,发现成功转型具备高自我参照、增强能力和相互依赖组织三个特征,为管理者在动态系统中利用转型提供了新方法。
Executive Overview Navigating major transitions is never easy, but complexity science offers insights into the transformations of three new ventures on the verge of a critical transition. The outcomes of change were unpredictable, but the process of change was extremely similar across the three firms. Moreover, the successful transitions incorporated three qualities: high self-reference, increased capacity, and interdependent organizing. In-depth case studies from an intensive research project on these themes reveal this pattern amid the chaos of entrepreneurial change, offer a new method of control in dynamic systems, and help managers leverage transformation in new ventures.
