Tiivistelmä: | This paper explores the contradiction of organisational memory (henceforth as: org-mem.), that is: an organisation (here as: org./orgs.) requires a memory to operate effectively, but that same memory inhibits and constrains its ability to operate effectively. A conceptual framework pioneered by Schultze and Stabell for examining contradictions in the area of knowledge management (KM) is introduced. This framework is used to distinguish btw. the conventional view and a constructivist view of org-mem. From the latter emerges a picture of the Markovian organization: an org. whose future behaviour is determined not by memories of the past but by its current state. |
