The Emergence of Organization Sets in Three Ecumenical Disaster Recovery Organizations: An Empirical and Theoretical Exploration
研究了三个普世灾难恢复组织中组织集的形成过程,发现结晶、识别和制度化三个阶段与组织集规模、边界人员层级、组织间联系标准化和边界职位专业化等特征变化相关。
The paper focuses on the emergence of the organization sets of three ecumenical disaster recovery organizations. After outlining a model of the emergence of organization sets, it is demonstrated that the three phases in the model-crystallization, recognition, and institutionalization-are associated with specific changes in the characteristics of all three organization sets studied. The changes exhibited concern the size of the organization set, the hierarchical level of boundary personnel, the standardization of interorganizational contacts, and the specialization of boundary positions. The consistency of the model with the open systems perspective on organizations is discussed.
