| Abstract: | This paper extends recent work on improvisation by focusing on the role of information flows and the action- learning interaction as an organization responds to a changeable environment and/or to a crisis. Novelty, speed and coherence are presented as dimensions of improvisation and the authors show how environmental factors influence the effectiveness of these. A typology of improvisation is offered and the authors states that suggests that improvisational skills can themselves be learned with more effective improvisation resulting. The paper provides a substantial list of references on this subject. |
