组织管理学科的理论形态与创新途径

在论述成熟学科理论形态的基础上,以组织行为学为例,系统地分析了当前组织管理理论存在的问题,并提出了理论创新的途径与策略建议.研究结果表明,一门成熟的学科通常有多种不同的理论形态,揭示事物本质的理论、揭示概念间关系的理论、揭示事物演变规律的理论,以及元理论等抽象程度高的理论形态应该居于更重要的地位,但这些理论形态恰恰是当前组织管理学科比较缺乏的.

Theoretic Forms and Innovation Paths in Organization and Management Discipline

Based on the discussion about theoretic forms of a mature science,this paper systematically analyzes existing problems among current organization and management theories,especially focusing on organizational behavior.It further proposes four possible approaches and strategies to promote theoretical innovation.It claim that a mature science should contain different patterns of theory,and meta-theory and those more Abstract theories which are used to indicate the nature of entity,relationships among constructs,and the evolution of entity/entities should be more important than others.However,these Abstract theories are particularly scarce in organization and management discipline nowadays.
