Exploring the Problem-Finding and Problem-Solving Approach for Designing Organizations
探讨问题发现与问题解决方法如何为整合能力、动态能力和治理视角提供基础,帮助学者和实践者从设计科学角度连贯地设计组织。
Executive Overview An emerging problem-finding and problem-solving approach suggests that management's ability to discover problems to solve, opportunities to seize, and challenges to respond to is vital to organizations. This paper explores the extent to which the problem-finding and problem-solving approach can provide a foundation for joining the capabilities, dynamic capabilities, and governance perspectives as a way to help scholars and practitioners to coherently design organizations from the perspective of design science. The problem-finding and problem-solving approach offers a unit of analysis and a set of behavioral assumptions that enable us to address open questions within the extant literature and to propose new questions in management research.
