摘要

The purpose of this study was to contribute to our understanding of work improvement as conducted by a manufacturing improvement team, and in particular, to our understanding of the role that reflection might play in team members' learning and the success of the initiative. An agricultural marketing cooperative, owned by member food-processing cooperatives, was selected as the site for this study because tasks and reflection on practices might be more observable in work done by natural competitors engaged in cooperation. The following questions guided this research: (1) How do team members prospectively and retrospectively describe and understand their project work and the role that learning plays in achieving project objectives? (2) What work tasks are actually performed by the team during their work together, and how do the tasks compare with those prescribed by the literature? (3) According to Schon's ladder of reflection, which "rungs" of reflectivity are engaged by or accessible to project team members while conducting their improvement work? (4) How, if at all, does teamwork performed at different rungs of reflectivity seem to connect with a qualitatively more or less comprehensive kind of learning?;Open-ended qualitative interviews were conducted with all team members immediately before, immediately after, and then again seven weeks after teamwork sessions. Interviews were analyzed along with data from observation and tape-recording of the team's meetings and review of relevant documents.;Participants hold expansive prospective aspirations about what the group might accomplish, hoping or even expecting that teamwork will identify problems at "root cause" of the work process under review. Despite the expansive aspirations, the teamwork process effectively narrows the scope of its work. It redefines an "adaptive" challenge (problem known, solution and implementation unknown; learning required) into a "technical" one (problem, solution and implementation known; learning not required). It also prevents reflection from taking place at any but the lowest rungs. The group's suppression of a single dramatic instance of higher rung reflection is crucial to its maintaining a narrower focus that produces success as a modest procedural remedy rather than a substantive engagement of systemic improvement.

(2)团队在共同工作期间实际上执行了哪些工作任务,这些任务与文献中规定的相比如何? (3)根据Schon的反思阶梯,在进行改进工作时,项目团队成员参与了哪些反射率梯级? (4)在不同的反射率等级下进行的团队合作似乎与定性的或多或少的全面学习方式有联系吗?;在紧接其之前,之后和之后对所有团队成员进行了不限成员名额的定性访谈。然后在小组会议之后的七个星期再次。分析了访谈的内容以及团队会议的观察和录音以及相关文件的审查结果。与会者对小组可能取得的成就抱有广泛的期望,希望甚至期望团队合作能够发现问题的“根本原因”。正在审查的工作流程。尽管抱有广泛的期望,但团队合作过程有效地缩小了其工作范围。它将“自适应”挑战(已知问题,解决方案和实现未知;需要学习)重新定义为“技术”挑战(已知问题,解决方案和实现;无需学习)。它还可以防止在最低的横档处发生反射。该小组抑制单个梯级反射的戏剧性实例,对于保持较窄的关注点至关重要,该关注点可以作为一种适度的程序性补救措施,而不是对系统改进的实质性投入而取得成功。
