Research on Organizational Configurations: Past Accomplishments and Future Challenges
回顾了组织构型研究自1993年以来的进展与不足，提出清晰定义，并探讨该理论如何拓展至人力资源管理、组织行为、伦理、创业和国际商务等领域。
Organizational configurations are sets of firms that are similar in terms of important characteristics. This article is intended to help close three gaps in the literature on organizational configurations. First, the authors propose clear definitions that may facilitate progress in the literature. Second, they provide the first major review since 1993 of accomplishments and struggles within organizational configurations research. Third, they describe how the configurational approach to organizations can make greater contributions within its traditional domains of organization theory and strategic management and can be extended to inform areas such as human resource management, organizational behavior, ethics, entrepreneurship, and international business.
