Sensemaking, Organizing, and Surpassing: A Handoff*
反思了《组织的社会心理学》一书的思想渊源，强调其旨在勾勒组织认识论，并探讨经验与理解的互动，包括自我验证预言、偏好相似性、信念与怀疑的矛盾以及理解作为持续成就。
Abstract In this essay, I reflect on the intellectual influences that led to the genesis of the Social Psychology of Organizing and assess the way forward. I stress that the Social Psychology aspired to provide an outline of an organizational epistemology. I particularly focus on the interplay between experience and understanding, highlighting the following features: self‐validating prophecy, partiality toward similarity, ambivalence between belief and doubt, and understanding as ongoing accomplishment. I conclude with a discussion of the three papers published in this Special issue.
