Reflection and Mindfulness in Organizations: Rationales and Possibilities for Integration
探讨了组织如何促进行动中的反思,认为这与正念现象密切相关,并整合两派文献以解释为何某些组织学习效果更佳。
The notion of reflection has featured strongly in Management Learning in recent years. While there is an important body of knowledge on how organizations can foster reflection-on-action, less seems to be known about how they can promote reflection-in-action. We suggest that reflection-in-action is closely linked to the phenomenon of mindfulness and we outline what existing research on mindfulness may teach us about understanding and organizing reflection-in-action. We believe that integrating the perspectives taken in these two streams of literature is important for a clear understanding of why some organizations seem to learn ‘better’ than others and why some initiatives to promote reflection and learning are more successful than others.
