摘要

理论是学术的命脉,但理论建构的艺术仍然相当神秘。作者以自己的经验为跳板,探讨了我们可能试图理解组织生活以改善组织实践的过程。他讨论了自己从证明答案(通过调查研究促进的假设检验)到提出问题(通过定性研究促进的假设生成)的历程,并考虑了如何将总体研究热情转化为研究兴趣和具体的研究问题。作者详细介绍了他和他的合著者是如何建立理论的,当他们的意图是开辟一条新的道路,而不是简单地铺设一条旧的道路。他还简要地讨论了研究合作、审查过程,以及如果你想追求开拓性的想法,你需要考虑的职业问题。他希望你读完这一章后,能自信地称自己为理论家,至少是含蓄地称自己为理论家。

Why the Heck Did That Happen?
Theory is the lifeblood of scholarship, but the art of theory-building remains quite mysterious. Using his own experiences as a springboard, the author explores the process through which we might attempt to make sense of organizational life for the betterment of organizational practice. He discusses his own journey from proving answers (the hypothesis-testing facilitated by survey research) to asking questions (the hypothesis-generating facilitated by qualitative research) and considers how to translate an overarching research passion into research interests and specific research questions. The author offers a detailed look at how he and his coauthors build theory when their intent is to blaze a new path rather than simply pave an old one. He also briefly discusses research collaborations, the review process, and career considerations if you’re thinking about pursuing path-blazing ideas. His hope is that you’ll finish this chapter with the confidence to call yourself what you already are, at least implicitly—a theorist.
