摘要

研究目的本研究探讨了适应性相关文献中长期持有的观点，即企业根据不断变化的环境调整组织结构的能力与卓越绩效相关。我们创建并测试了一个反映组织结构变化能力的结构，我们称之为供应链结构适应性（SCSA），而不是依赖于之前研究中使用的代用指标（如结构形式或组织模块化）。研究结果我们发现，在各种环境条件下，SCSA 对盈利性增长的影响好坏参半。原创性/价值我们发现的证据驳斥了组织研究中两个普遍持有的假设，即结构形式是结构适应性的合理替代物，以及适应能力的益处总是随着环境动态性的增加而增加。

In search of profitable growth in volatile and unpredictable environments: the role of supply chain structural adaptability

Purpose

This research examines the long-held belief in the adaption-related literature that a firm’s ability to adapt organizational structure to changing environments is related to superior performance. We create and test a construct that reflects an organization’s ability to change structure, which we call Supply Chain Structural Adaptability (SCSA), rather than relying on proxies (e.g. structural form or organizational modularity) used in prior studies.

Design/methodology/approach

Quantitative data was collected from 218 firms to test our conceptual model.

Findings

We find that SCSA has a mixed effect on profitable growth under various environmental conditions.

Originality/value

We find evidence that refutes two widely held assumptions in organization research, namely, that structural form serves as a reasonable proxy for structural adaptability and that the benefits of adaptive capabilities always increase as environmental dynamism increases.
