不断变化的组织结构可能是组织变革最明显的指标和明确的证据。本研究的目的是探讨组织结构变革过程中各个步骤之间的关系，特别关注驱动因素、组成部分、沟通和结果。为了研究组织结构的变化，分析采用了多案例研究设计，重点关注四个组织。结果得出改变组织结构的方法。这些方法的特点是：a）强调变革的外部或内部驱动因素；b）关于变革的正式或非正式沟通的盛行。这些特征的相互组合会产生四种可能的结果，以 2 x 2 矩阵表示为改变组织结构的方法。该矩阵有助于理解改变沟通的内容或形式如何促进组织变革的不同组成部分的变化。 (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. 保留所有权利。
A changing organizational structure is probably the most apparent indicator and clear evidence of organizational change. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the steps of the process of changing organizational structure, with special focus on drivers, components, communication, and outcomes. To study a change in organizational structure, the analysis employs a multiple case study research design, focusing on four organizations. The results derive approaches to changing organizational structure. Those approaches' characteristics are a) an emphasis on external or internal drivers of the change, and b) the prevalence of formal or non-formal communication on the change. A mutual combination of these characteristics leads to four possible outcomes, pictured in a 2 x 2 matrix as approaches to changing organizational structure. The matrix helps to understand how changing the content or form of communication facilitates changes in different components of organizational change. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
