Organizational Decline: A Neglected Topic in Organizational Science1
指出组织科学家因关注增长而忽视衰退，预测紧缩时代到来，提出研究、教学和咨询议程以纠正这一忽视。
Organizational decline has not been adequately examined by organizational scientists, because they are preoccupied with organizational growth and its consequences. The emphasis on growth reflects actual organizational conditions and the prevailing ideology in our society. However, predictions of an emerging era of retrenchment imply a need to study the management of organizational decline. In this paper, I propose an agenda of research, teaching, and consulting activities to rectify our neglect of this topic.
