Territoriality in Organizations
探讨组织成员对空间、想法、角色等产生领地感及相应行为,分析这些行为如何构建、维护领地,并讨论其对组织承诺、冲突、专注和个体孤立的影响。
Territorial feelings and behaviors are important, pervasive, and yet largely overlooked aspects of organizational life. Organizational members can and do become territorial over physical spaces, ideas, roles, relationships, and other potential possessions in organizations. We examine how territorial behaviors are used to construct, communicate, maintain, and restore territories in organizations. We then go on to discuss the organizational consequences of these behaviors, including their effects on organizational commitment, conflict, preoccupation, and individual isolation.
