Strategy for Public and Third-Sector Organizations
本文提出了一个框架，将公共与第三部门组织的战略类型与由行动需求和响应性决定的环境相匹配，并建议在动荡环境中采用互惠战略。
This article presents a framework in which types of strategies for public and third-sector organizations are matched to environments that are determined by the need for action and responsiveness. Strategic leaders are asked to balance need with responsiveness as they fashion a strategy. The amount of change that is desirable increase, as need and responsiveness increase, first calling for bureaucratic and then for compromisor types of strategy. In turbulent environments a different strategy is required. Using the framework, we suggest that a mutualist strategy will be needed to deal with the environmental turbulence—brought on by attempts to respond to rapidly changing needs—predicted for public and third-sector organizations in the next decade. Drawing on these ideas, we suggest a research program.
