Abstract

Organizational routines represent the primary means through which organizations perform and prevail, and can be found in such diverse tasks as hiring new employees, assembling cars in automobile plants, and conducting surgery in hospitals. This dissertation examines the antecedents, processes, and outcomes of organizational routine change and argues that organizational context is underappreciated in routine research. Context matters because it helps explain when, why, and how routines change.
