This is an unusual routine - a recurrent interaction pattern in which someone encounters a problem when trying to accomplish normal activities by following standard organizational procedures and then becomes enmeshed in wasteful and even harmful subroutines while trying to resolve the initial problem. They are unusual because they are not intended or beneficial, and because they are generally pervasive but individually infrequent. They are routines because they become systematic as well as embedded in ordinary functions. Using a wide range of case studies and interdisciplinary research, this book provides researchers and practitioners with a new vocabulary for identifying, understanding, and dealing with this pervasive organizational phenomenon, in order to improve worker and customer satisfaction as well as organizational performance. 606 $aOrganizational behavior 606 $aOrganizational change 606 $aOrganizational learning 615 0$aOrganizational behavior. 615 0$aOrganizational change. 615 0$aOrganizational learning. 676 $a302.3/5 700 $aRice$b Ronald E$0572258 701 $aCooper$b Stephen D$f1950-$01751845 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818176303321 996 $aOrganizations and unusual routines$94186967 997 $aUNINA
