管理解释对组织二元性的影响:行动一致性的调节作用

The Influence of Managerial Interpretation on Organizational Ambidexterity:Moderation of Behavioral Integration

管理者对战略环境的解释对其战略选择具有重要影响,而企业探索式创新、利用式创新及两者平衡是影响企业发展的重要战略,考察管理解释对组织二元创新的影响具有重要意义。基于管理认知过程研究,提出一系列关于管理解释与组织二元性(包括探索式创新和利用式创新)关系的假设,基于207份问卷样本数据实证研究发现,管理者威胁解释会促进利用式创新,而机会解释会促进探索式创新;管理者矛盾性解释会促进组织二元性,而管理团队行动一致性在以上关系中具有正向调节作用。研究结论丰富了管理认知过程的重要环节——管理者外部环境解释,并将其与组织发展重要因素——组织二元性相结合,刻画了如何通过对外部信息的矛盾性解释,辩证地考察企业发展战略,进而成功构建二元性组织。
