Organizing Frameworks in Emerging Organizations: A Cognitive Approach to the Analysis of Change
研究了决策者如何思考组织与新兴组织变革之间的关系,通过分析三个引入计算机辅助设计的案例,将关键行动者分为分析师、促进者或组织者,并发现其思维模式与组织变革的对应关系。
This article presents a study designed to relate the way decision makers think about organizing to emerging changes in organizations. The complexity and content of the organizing frameworks of key actors in three cases of introduction of computer aided design were analyzed. This resulted in a typology describing actors as analysts, facilitators, or organizers. A correspondence was found between the way these actors thought about organization and the emerging organizations observed in three cases. The study is used to develop a cognitive actor's approach to organizational change.
