论现代化进程中组织认同的动力——对比利时某一行政机构的分析

What are the dynamics of organizational identification in the course of modernization processes?Analysis of a Belgian administration

组织认同是改革进程中的显著问题。当行政现代化的过程开始重新定义组织认同时,组织成员应如何应对?依据他们对环境中变化的认知,工作中身份认同的动力是什么?通过分析比利时的哥白尼改革计划,我们归纳性地构建了认同的基本原理和类型(Rondeaux,2006,2007,2008,2010)。在此基础上,我们在参与改革的地区的行政机关中进行了问卷调查。我们的分析强调,不同身份认同的原理和不同环境认知之间的共存,它们本身是一致或相悖的。研究结果凸显了组织认同过程中环境及对其认知的重要性,证实了认同混合形成的假设,也为拉瓦锡和舒尔茨(Ravasi and Schultz,2006)的综合测试法奠定了实证基础。

In the course of reform,organizational identity emerges as a prominent issue.While the process of modernizing the administration sets out to redefine this identity,how is this experienced by its members?What are the identity dynamics at work in terms of their perception of changes in their environment?By analysing the Copernic reform in Belgium,we inductively developed a typology of identity rationales and profiles(Rondeaux,2006,2007,2008,2010).On this basis,we conducted a questionnaire survey in a regional administration engaged in reform.Our analysis highlights the coexistence of different identity rationales and diverse percep-tions of the environment,which are congruent or dissonant with them.The results underline the importance of the environment and of its perception in organizational identification processes and confirms the hypothesis of identity hybridization,providing also an empirical basis for the integrative approach of Ravasi and Schultz(2006).
