摘要:

在激烈的市场竞争中,新创企业如何协调个体层和组织层共同构建创新能力,从而有效应对快速变化环境的问题一直悬而未决。本文以蒙草生态作为案例研究对象,基于意义建构和意义给赋理论,从跨层视角深入探索企业创新能力生成的内在机理,分析管理者个体层如何实现认知变革从而为能力发展提供方向,以及组织层如何通过资源行动构建异质性创新能力以有效应对环境变化,并着重探讨了管理者跨层级引导组织层形成统一认知的内在机制。研究发现:(1)外部环境变化触发管理者个体层进行的意义建构过程为管理者创建了理性认知基础,是企业创新能力演化的逻辑起点。(2)组织层基于认知采取“拼凑零散资源”到“整合异质性资源”再到“协奏共享资源”不断进化的资源行动推动企业创新能力不断升级,从而突破组织能力刚性的枷锁。(3)管理者通过“限制性单向范式”“引导性互动范式”“平台性共享范式”的跨层级意义给赋过程实现了管理者认知向组织认知的跨越。

Abstract:

In the fierce market competition, a new company has to consider how to coordinate innovation ability at both individual and organizational level to adopt for the fast-changing environment. Taking Mongolian grass ecology as an example, this paper uses the sense-making and sense-giving theory to explore, from a cross-level perspective, the internal mechanism by which new companies generate their innovation ability, analyzes how managers can realize cognitive change to provide direction for ability development and how the organizations can build heterogeneous innovation capacity through resource-focused action to effectively respond to environmental changes, and emphatically discusses the internal mechanism by which managers guide the organization to form a unified cross-level cognition. The study finds that:(1) The sense-making process triggered by the change of external environment creates the basis of rational cognition for managers, and is the logical starting point of the evolution of enterprise innovation ability. (2) On the basis of cognition, the organization takes the resource actions from "piecing together scattered resources" to "integrating heterogeneous resources" to "coordinating shared resources" to constantly evolve to promote the continuous upgrading of the enterprise's innovation ability, thus breaking through the rigid shackles of organizational ability. (3) Managers realize the leap from managers' cognition to organizational cognition through the process of sense-giving meaning of "restricted unidirectional paradigm", "guiding interactive paradigm" and "platform sharing paradigm".
