本文介绍了一种创新的方法，基于学术界和从业人员之间的组织间合作，使用“共同研究”的方法，建立在内部/外部研究团队的方法，但超越。共同研究通过借鉴学者和从业人员的互补观点，兴趣，技能和知识基础建立了一个辩证的调查过程。共同研究是基于三位一体的研究角色。首先，负责研究的学术人员，他管理研究团队，并对组织提供“局外人”的观点。第二，被研究组织雇用的主办经理。这个人带来了一个“内部”的角度来看组织。第三，来自不同组织的合作研究人员，他们与学术人员一起进行研究。他或她是一个“内部人员”，因为他们熟悉正在研究的组织类型，但“外部人员”，因为他们自己的组织有不同的背景和过程。本文认为，合作研究是有效的，在生产有效的组织研究，部分通过利用内部/外部知识，部分通过“惊喜和意义制造”（路易斯，1980年）。研究范式是通过协商和辩证的方法来组织过程中的知识生成之一。
This article describes an innovative methodology based on inter-organizational collaboration between academics and practitioners, using a “co-research” method that builds on but goes beyond the methodology of insider/outsider research teams. Co-research establishes a dialectical process of enquiry by drawing on the complementary perspectives, interests, skills, and knowledge bases of academics and practitioners. Co-research is based on a triad of research roles. First, the academic responsible for the research, who manages the research team and who contributes an “outsider” view of the organization. Second, the host manager employed by the organization being researched. This person brings an “insider” perspective on the organization. Third, the co-researcher from a different organization who carries out the research alongside the academic(s). He or she is an “insider” in that they are familiar with the type of organization being researched, but an “outsider” in that their own organization has a different context and processes. This article argues that co-research is effective in producing valid organizational research, partly through the harnessing of inside/outsider knowledge and partly through “surprise and sense-making” (Louis, 1980). The research paradigm is one of knowledge generation through a negotiated and dialectical approach to organizational processes.
