Contingency Theory[权变理论]

知识中心

作为一种行为理论，权变理论（Contingency Theory）认为根本没有所谓的最好的办法去组织企业、领导团队或者制定决策。 组织形式/领导风格/决策方式在某种情况下效果卓著，然而，换一种情况可能就不那么成功。 换句话说， 这种组织形式/领导风格/决策方式依赖于组织内部的或外部的约束（因素）。

制约因素

这些制约因素包括（仅举数例）：

• 组织规模；
• 组织对于外界环境的适应性；
• 组织资源与经营活动的差距；
• 管理人员对员工先入为主的假想；
• 战略；
• 科技；
• 等等。

1. 权变理论与组织

1. 如何管理组织没有放之四海而皆准的普遍方式或最佳方式。
2. 组织、系统的设计必须符合它所存在的特殊环境。
3. 有效组织不仅与其所处环境相适，组织内部的次级系统之间也存在这种适应性。
4. 只有当组织形式设计适当、组织的管理风格既适应组织任务所需，又贴近组织属性的时候，组织各项所需才能得到较好的满足。

2. 权变理论与领导力

根据权变理论，成功领导是诸多变量的函数，如下属类型、工作任务及团队因素等。 一种特定领导行为的效能亦受制于具体环境需求。 权变理论强调各种不同的领导风格一定要贴近各自的组织环境需要。 与之相关的具体理论有：

• Fiedler的权变理论（Fiedler's Contingency Theory）： Fiedler理论是最早的权变理论，被广泛研究。 Fiedler的研究从领导者性格特征和行为习惯出发，总结出组织绩效受制于领导者个人心智导向及其他三个情景变量，即 组织氛围、任务结构以及领导者权力地位。 这一理论解释了组织绩效在上述三个变量两两作用下的不同结果， 揭示了在不同变量情境下的有效领导风格。 根据Fiedler理论，领导效能就是领导风格与领导者工作环境属性交互作用的结果。
• Situational Theory[情境理论] （Hersey & Blanchard）： 情境理论是Blake和Mouton的管理方格模型（Managerial Grid）和Reddin的3D管理风格理论（3D Management Style Theory）的延伸， 它在对领导力的研究中，扩展了人际关系与工作任务维度的概念，并融入了准备度维度。
• Leadership Pipeline[领导补给线] (德罗特)

3. 权变理论与决策

Vroom和Yetton的决策参与权变理论（Decision Participation Contingency Theory），或被称作为常规决策理论（Normative Decision Theory）。 根据这一理论模型，决策效能受一系列情境因子影响：

• 决策品质及下级对决策的接受度。
• 领导与下级所拥有的相关信息总量。
• 下级接受独断决策的可能性，或者下级参与其中合作制定更好决策的可能性。
• 与下级意见的分歧大小。

权变理论和情境理论

没有哪一种简单的方法总是行之有效的，就此假定而言，权变理论与情景理论颇为相似。 它们的主要差别在于，情景理论更关注领导者的行为特征、 所处的情境因素（往往与下级的行为相关）。 而权变理论则采取一个更为广阔的视野，既考虑了领导力的权变因素，又包含了组织环境的其他变量因素。
