| Tiivistelmä: | Organiaations are constrained by routines, but paradoxically routines are the very stuff of organisations; without routines organisations could not function. The problem start when routines get in the way of strategic thinking and strategic change. The organisation in all its aspects support routine behaviour. If these behaviours need to change there are problems if the status quo structures and processes are used to implement the required changes. The risks are that the culture will absorb and dissipate the intentions to change "the way things get done around here". Bowman argues that processes that work outside the existing structures must, therefore, be used to work on old routines. In this way new routines can be developed which together can help the organisation to transcend routine levels of performance. |
