帮助研究者超越简单标签,深入探索组织中的悖论现象,提出一个框架来阐明悖论张力、强化循环及其管理,并回顾了相关研究,最后给出识别和呈现悖论的策略。

Abstract

“Paradox” appears increasingly in organization studies, often to describe conflicting demands, opposing perspectives, or seemingly illogical findings. This article helps researchers move beyond labeling—to explore paradoxes and contribute insights more in tune with organizational complexity and ambiguity. I first develop a framework that clarifies the nature of paradoxical tensions, reinforcing cycles, and their management. Using this framework, I then review studies in which paradoxes spurred by change and plurality are investigated. I conclude by outlining strategies for identifying and representing paradox, addressing implications for research.
