摘要

目的本研究的目的是在非商业背景下探索长期思维的概念,以更深入地了解如何弥合长期思维理论及其作为管理策略的应用之间的差距。设计/方法论/方法为了在非商业环境中进一步探索长期思维的概念,对瑞典一个市镇的幼儿园领导进行了一项有根据的理论研究,以考察领导如何在学校中描述、定义和应用长期思维的理念。对学校领导的书面和口头访谈被用于数据收集。这项研究表明,长期思维的概念可以是双重的。首先,描述可以作为反映任务的锚。其次,描述可以成为指导决策的指导机制。研究结果还强调了组织发展组织文化的重要性,这种文化将他们的愿景和目标与客户的价值观和需求联系起来。研究局限性/含义这项研究是在一个组织中进行的,显示了收集数据时该组织状态的快照。因此,研究结果并非适用于所有组织环境;相反,这些发现可以转移到其他环境中。实际意义研究结果可用于帮助确定城市背景下的幼儿园可以参与可持续质量发展的领域,以建立以更结构化的方式支持高质量工作的系统。原创性/价值长期思维在理论和组织中都被视为在可持续发展和质量方面取得成功所必需的,本研究有助于了解组织中长期思维理论与实践之间的当前差距。

Understanding long-term thinking as a management strategy to support sustainable quality development: perspectives from education
PurposeThe purpose of this study is to explore the concept of long-term thinking in a non-business context to gain deeper insights into bridging the gap between the theory of long-term thinking and its application as a management strategy.Design/methodology/approachTo explore the concept of long-thinking further in a non-business setting, a grounded theory study was conducted with preschool leaders in a municipality in Sweden to examine how the leaders describe, define and apply the concept of long-term thinking in their schools. Interviews with school leaders, both written and oral, were used for data collection.FindingsThis study illustrates that the concept of long-term thinking can be twofold. First, the description can be as an anchor that reflects a mission. Second, the description can be a steering mechanism that guides decision-making. The findings also reinforce the importance of organisations developing an organisational culture that connect their vision and goals with the values and needs of their customers.Research limitations/implicationsThis study was carried out in a single organisation and shows a snapshot of the organisation's status at the time the data were collected. Therefore, the findings are not generalisable to all organisational settings; rather the findings may be transferable to other settings.Practical implicationsThe results can be used to help identify areas where preschools in a municipal context can engage with sustainable quality development in order to build systems that support work with quality in a more structured way.Originality/valueLong-term thinking is seen, within both theory and organisations, as necessary to achieve success in terms of sustainable development and quality, and this study contributes with knowledge about the current gap between theories of long-term thinking and practice in organisations.

期刊介绍: Commitment to quality is essential if companies are to succeed in a commercial environment which will be virtually unrecognizable in less than a decade. Changing attitudes, changing perspectives and changing priorities will revolutionise the structure and philosophy of future business practice - and TQM will be at the heart of that metamorphosis. All aspects of preparing for, developing, introducing, managing and evaluating TQM initiatives.
