Collective Virtuosity in Organizations: A Study of Peak Performance in an Orchestra
通过观察管弦乐团，研究团队层面的巅峰表现，发现个体精湛技艺可通过反思过程转化为集体精湛技艺，并提出组织集体精湛技艺的命题模型。
abstract The purpose of this paper is to build theory on peak performance at the group level. Peak performance transcends ordinary performance and is associated with a subjective experience in which one loses a sense of time and space as well as feels great joy and bliss. We chose to study this phenomenon at the group level through a methodology of participant observation in an orchestra. We found that groups can be transformed by their own performance in a reflexive process in which virtuosity, or individual peak performance, becomes collective. We offer a propositional model of collective virtuosity in organizations, and offer directions for further research.
