| Abstract: | This study suggests that, when viewed dynamically, organizational change can be both adaptive and disruptive. When viewed over time, the same forces that make organizations inert also make them more malleable. Organizational changes have two consequences: the first is an immediate increase in the hazard of organizational failure, and the second is an immediate increase in the likelihood of additional changes of the same type. The effects of change also depend on timing within the organization's life cycle. |
