摘要

目的参与救济提供的组织往往具有跨境授权,这导致在向目标受害者提供救济服务的过程中角色模糊。由于没有明确的作用,专业化影响了服务的及时性,并增加了救援组织之间的资源重复。本研究的目的是了解组织网络和组织学习作为复杂的适应性系统隐喻如何提高人道主义后勤中的组织适应性和角色清晰度。设计/方法/方法通过SmartPLS 3.3.3版使用普通偏最小二乘回归,作者根据从315名受访者中收集的调查数据对研究假设进行了测试,这些受访者是从101个人道主义组织中随机选择的,完成了一份自填问卷。通过实施程序和事后统计方法,将与调查相关的常见方法偏差(CMB)降至最低。研究结果表明,组织网络和组织学习对组织适应性和角色清晰度有显著影响。研究结果还表明,组织适应性在组织网络、组织学习和角色清晰度之间的关系中起部分中介作用。研究局限性/含义该研究的主要局限性是作者使用了横断面数据来检验这一研究假设。然而,根据指南和Ketokivi(2015)关于如何解决横断面数据的局限性或使用纵向数据来解决CMB和内生性问题的建议,这一点被最小化了。实际含义人道主义组织的管理者可以使用作者的框架来理解,首先,如何利用复杂的适应性系统能力来创造组织适应性,其次,组织适应性如何帮助组织网络和组织学习,通过合作提高人道主义组织的角色清晰度。独创性/价值这项研究通过实证检验轶事和概念证据,为人道主义物流和供应链管理的现有知识体系做出了贡献。这些发现可能对那些正在考虑使用组织网络、组织学习和组织适应性来提高救灾相关活动中角色清晰度的管理者有用。

Organisational networks, organisational learning, organisational adaptability and role clarity among humanitarian organisations during relief delivery
PurposeOrganisations involved in relief delivery tend to have cross-boundary mandates, which cause ambiguity of roles during delivery of relief services to the targeted victims. Having no clear role, specialisation affects service timeliness and increases resource duplication among the relief organisations. The objective of this study is to understand how organisational networks and organisational learning as complex adaptive system metaphors improve both organisational adaptability and role clarity in humanitarian logistics.Design/methodology/approachUsing ordinary partial least squares regression through SmartPLS version 3.3.3, the authors tested the study hypotheses basing on survey data collected from 315 respondents who were selected randomly to complete a self-administered questionnaire from 101 humanitarian organisations. Common method bias (CMB) associated with surveys was minimised by implementing both procedural and post statistics methods.FindingsThe results indicate that organisational networks and organisational learning have a significant influence on organisational adaptability and role clarity. The results also show that organisational adaptability partially mediates in the relationship between organisational networks, organisational learning and role clarity.Research limitations/implicationsThe major limitation of the study is that the authors have used cross-sectional data to test this research hypotheses. However, this was minimised following Guide and Ketokivi's (2015) recommendation on how to address the limitations of cross-sectional data or the use of longitudinal data that can address CMB and endogeneity problems.Practical implicationsManagers in humanitarian organisations can use the authors’ framework to understand, first, how complex adaptive system competence can be used to create organisational adaptability and, second, how organisational adaptability can help organisational networks and organisational learning in improving role clarity among humanitarian organisations by collaboratively working together.Originality/valueThis research contributes to the existing body of knowledge in humanitarian logistics and supply chain management by empirically testing the anecdotal and conceptual evidence. The findings may be useful to managers who are contemplating the use of organisational networks, organisational learning and organisational adaptability to improve role clarity in disaster relief-related activities.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Humanitarian Logistics and Supply Chain Management (JHLSCM) is targeted at academics and practitioners in humanitarian public and private sector organizations working on all aspects of humanitarian logistics and supply chain management. The journal promotes the exchange of knowledge, experience and new ideas between researchers and practitioners and encourages a multi-disciplinary and cross-functional approach to the resolution of problems and exploitations of opportunities within humanitarian supply chains. Contributions are encouraged from diverse disciplines (logistics, operations management, process engineering, health care, geography, management science, information technology, ethics, corporate social responsibility, disaster management, development aid, public policy) but need to have a logistics and/or supply chain focus. JHLSCM publishes state of the art research, utilizing both quantitative and qualitative approaches, in the field of humanitarian and development aid logistics and supply chain management.
