利用资源基础视角和组织变革文献，我们从概念上描述并实证检验了一种新的重要组织能力，即组织变革能力（OCC）。本文的目的是通过经验探索一个组织的变化能力和它在保加利亚的环境绩效之间的关系，保加利亚是一个独特的适当的转型经济，试图在经济上增长，而不会对其高度多样化的自然环境造成重大的新退化。在控制了行业部门、组织规模和组织盈利能力后，我们发现OCC与环境绩效之间存在显著的正相关关系。此外，我们发现，从高层管理人员、中层管理人员和一线员工的角度来看，OCC差异越大，公司的环境绩效就越差。然而，当高层管理者和一线员工的看法存在差异时，这种关系最为明显。
Using the resource-based perspective and the organizational change literature, we conceptually describe and empirically test a new and important organizational capability known as organizational capacity for change (OCC). The purpose of this paper is to empirically explore the relationship between an organization's capacity for change and its environmental performance within Bulgaria, a uniquely appropriate transition economy trying to grow economically without major new degradation to its highly diverse natural environment. We found a strong positive association between OCC and environmental performance after controlling for industry sector, organizational size, and organizational profitability. In addition, we found that the greater the differences in OCC from the perspective of top management, midmanagement, and frontline workers, the worse the firm's environmental performance. However, this relationship was most pronounced when there were differences in the perceptions of top managers and frontline workers.
