We review the research on organization design from 2000 to 2023, inclusive. We identify four major approaches to organization design in the contemporary literature: configuration, control, channelization, and coordination. We discuss the key streams of research that characterize each of these approaches, as well as three emerging areas of research: AI and organizational decision-making, flat organizations, and multiple goals. Beyond the specific contributions of individual papers and streams of work, our review makes a number of high-level observations across approaches. We identify patterns that characterize this body of work, the methods used, open questions for future research, and a discussion of organization design as a theory. Collectively, these observations define the state of organization design research and may provide scholars with a foundation for future research.

组织设计：当前的见解和未来的研究方向


我们回顾了 2000 年至 2023 年（含）的组织设计研究。我们确定了当代文献中组织设计的四种主要方法：配置、控制、渠道化和协调。我们讨论了表征每种方法的关键研究流，以及三个新兴研究领域：人工智能和组织决策、扁平化组织和多重目标。除了单篇论文和工作流的具体贡献之外，我们的评论还对各种方法进行了一些高层次的观察。我们确定了本工作的特征模式、所使用的方法、未来研究的开放问题以及对组织设计作为理论的讨论。总的来说，这些观察结果定义了组织设计研究的现状，并可能为学者们的未来研究奠定基础。
