Abstract

This study explores what kinds of (and how) organizational capabilities (benchmarking, modeling, forecasting, and backcasting), respectively and collectively, help an organization to have a more proactive policy orientation. An analysis of the public agencies in South Korea in 2021 shows several significant findings. First, all four of the organizational capabilities are conducive to a proactive policy orientation, which may be intuitively acceptable. Second, however, in contrast to expectation, the relative impact of forecasting capability on proactive policy orientation turned out to be the weakest among the four capabilities. An interpretation of these findings indicates that, proactive policies might be better produced in the organizational environment where forecasting can be supported by empirical evidence (benchmarking), methodical reasoning (modeling), and tangible planning (backcasting).

本研究探讨了组织能力(基准、建模、预测和反向预测)的种类(以及如何)分别和共同帮助一个组织拥有更积极的政策导向。对 2021 年韩国公共机构的分析显示了几项重要发现。首先,所有四种组织能力都有利于积极主动的政策导向,这在直觉上是可以接受的。其次,与预期相反,预测能力对积极政策导向的相对影响在四种能力中最弱。对这些发现的解释表明,在预测可以得到经验证据(基准)、方法推理(建模)和有形规划(反向预测)支持的组织环境中,积极主动的政策可能会更好地产生。
