從微觀民意觀點探討中央民意代表之公共服務品質之研究 / Research of the public service quality from micro public opinion viewpoint discussion legislator華樹華, Hua, Shu Hua Unknown Date (has links)
政治傳播具有高度的不可確定性,傳播過程裡的訊息無時無刻地產生發出,且經常讓人感到不可捉摸,而政治則是為調和成員之間的歧異所達成約束集體決策的活動的過程。中央民意代表對於這種人與人之間的相互傳播過程尤其重視,因為這是他的日常生活與工作的情境,中央民意代表與微觀民意之關係,即是於政治傳播情境中探索人民意義認知與再現的過程,屬於政治社會化歷程。
人民除了以投票的行為表達民意之外,微觀民意,將如何成為政府治理與決策的依據呢?就本文之研究發現,微觀民意不僅具有反映公共政策且具有影響政府決策的能力,但必須仰賴訊息能有效地傳播的基礎。微觀民意如何透過政治傳播歷程形成影響公共的結果?微觀民意與中央民意代表中介者之關係?是本研究的問題意識。中央民意代表接收民意的管道來源包括大眾傳播媒體、本身與民意的互動及週遭人士所提供的訊息等,其中以公共服務所接收的民意訊息最為直接且豐沛,尤其在2008年我國中央民意代表選舉制度改為小選區制後,中央民意代表對於選區內的民意更為重視採用。
公共服務是中央民意代表與微觀民意間重要的中介工具之一,因此使用者體驗之品質評價及其關係管理,成為公共服務流程中重要的品質設計概念,敏銳的生產設計者也可能因此發現使用者的潛在需求,而發揮創新的動能,本研究在中央民意代表的公共服務中,藉由10,000小時以上傳播互動、超過2,000組個案,統計分析微觀民意樣態,以了解使用者實證經驗與評價,以實證質性研究歸納出民意需求的實質內容,整合量化之研究,提出本文之論述:中央民意代表與微觀民意之意義建構在公共服務歷程中共構,形成影響公共的政治傳播。
從微觀民意觀點,探討中央民意代表公共服務之品質,其變項由公共服務品質、信任(滿意度)、政治效能感、忠誠度及形象五個構面加以檢證,公共服務品質之因子包括便利度、可靠度、溝通度、專業度及關懷力五個子構面。研究結果與假設吻合,公共服務品質自變項與應變項各構面間具有相關性及關聯度,且信任(滿意度)為公共服務品質與政治效能感之中介變項。
此外,本研究之重要發現為,在公共服務品質中影響「政治效能感」的評價主要因素為「信任」,而「信任」的建立又奠基於公共服務之「專業度」與「關懷力」,微觀民意因此必須在具有理解的「情感認知」對話情境中,公共服務者提供具有「法理專業」素養對現行公共政策缺陷與潛在需求的「意義建構」澄題與諮商歷程,公共服務品質流程中之「關懷力」評價,對於中央民意代表之「忠誠度」具有重要影響力。
微觀民意鑲嵌公共服務與中央民意代表之政治傳播歷程將因此有新的意義建構,連結並影響巨觀體制的公共的能力,公共服務品質之管理方法論,必須建置以公共利益為軸心之流程設計概念中,注入細緻的創新元素「關懷力」及「專業度」,使人際與語意傳播之意義建構在具政治信任及政治效能感成份之公共服務流程中,微觀民意得以發揮對於巨觀的社會體制產生影響與改變的能力,使百姓與國家治理者產生有效對話機制。

The focus of this dissertation is on how communication regarding work environment and work related risks can be understood from an organizational communication perspective. Based on a case study of communication about work environment and work related risks in the Swedish forest industry, the present study discusses institutional influences on organizational sense making processes. A central question has been how to understand the organizational field as a cultural and communicative arena where concepts and ideas connected with issues in the field are communicated between different actors. The empirical data was gathered using different methods. A questionnaire aiming at screening media habits and information gathering strategies of forest machine contractors was used. Based on information from that screening, mass media content was analysed, such as daily newspapers, trade press and advertisements for forest machines. Also, interviews with actors in the field were analysed thematically with respect to how to unveil hidden key symbols and cultural valuations of forest machine work, the work environment and how to handle work related risks in forest work. The key symbols that were identified to organise conceptions about forest work and occupational risks connected with it contained information about different attitudes towards how to handle risks and other problems in the work environment. Two main types of conceptions were identified, technologically oriented conceptions and person oriented conceptions. The analysis revealed a fragmented picture of forest work. Yet, the picture was more or less common to the organizational field as a whole. Building on institutional theory and theories of sense making, the study results in a deeper understanding of sense making in relation to work environmental issues by applying an organizational dimension to risk communication in an organizational field.

Organisering och identifikation i byggherrerollen : Dialektik, möten och meningsskapandeStrömberg, Annika January 2009 (has links)
This study within organization theory takes a process perspective and focuses on how the dialectic interaction between the structuring and improvisational parts of organizing is handled in construction sites. In studies of organizing where reality is seen as socially constructed with focus on the subjective source of organizations reality, the individuals understanding of the identity and the rolecan be seen as central to interpret the social processes. Depending on how the actors understand their role in the context, the acting/interacting is going to beinfluenced. In times when the different orders of organizing have contrastingcontents the understanding of the role and the context is going to challenge. The actors then have to consider and reconsider the understanding of the role.To make the identification perspective possible to study a theoretical framework is constructed where community, meetings, insecurity and sense making arehighlighted as important aspects in the identification process. The empirical partis based on narratives from ten construction clients. The narratives were initiatedby descriptions of four situations, describing four occurrences, which provide four different attitudes to how the dialectic interaction between different ordersof organizing can be handled. The analysis of the narratives is based on how theactors in there argumentation express doubt and faith. Expression of doubt andfaith is used as tools to make the identification process concrete to be possible tostudy in a fruitful way.The study points out how doubt and faith are used to create pictures of the actors understanding of the role and its context. The analysis gives three identificationpatterns. The characteristics and content of the patterns are different whichinclude a difference between the understandings of the tension in the dialecticinteraction of different organizing orders. We can therefore say that the threepatterns give different starting points for action and interaction. Finally the implications of the results from the study are discussed in relation to management accounting and organizational change. / QC 20100811

Farmers making sense out of a cartographic landscape: Like a patchwork of clothes, rather than just chunks of... parcelsvan der Weijst, Johannes January 2012 (has links)
Planning maps are not only, as is often silently assumed by planners, neutral technical tools to assist them in their design and analytical tasks or to communicate their findings to others. In complex multi-stakeholder planning processes maps are also inherently coloured representations of knowledge, the outcomes a specific way of learning resulting from the activity of mapping itself, and discursive means through which norms and interests are promoted as objective truths.
This thesis research explored how members of a local stakeholder group representing farm business made sense out of, and judged the data quality of planning maps in a combined highway planning and environmental impact study in southern Ontario, executed by the province’s Ministry of Transportation. More specifically it was concerned with how participants evaluated the cartographic representation issues of interest to them in the context of a mayor decision in the transportation study: the location of the highway route, in which both its existing route and new route sections through rural lands were options. The research instruments were a map review workshop and a questionnaire.
This research was theoretically underpinned by a framework that integrates three fields of knowledge: cartographic theory, planning theory, and theory on knowledge and sensemaking. The framework served as a sensitizing concept for the analysis and interpretation of the observations obtained from research participants. All three fields were explored with an emphasis on social constructivist understandings which facilitated the understanding of situations characterized by complexity and ambiguity where certain and objective knowledge becomes impossible and where the perspectives and interests of multiple stakeholders come to the foreground.
The spatial data on the study cartography in general was judged as correct. The big exception was the data on water-related phenomena. Here participants, although they were familiar with the area, had access to the reviewed cartography for more than two years, and were well aware of the importance of water-related issues in the decision-making process, only during the workshop became aware that the data, recently released by an official data source, were strongly outdated. The findings confirmed the usefulness for planning processes of the simple review procedure followed in the workshop.
The process of sensemaking by participants focussed strongly on two areas. First, the central issue of the group: the recognition of agriculture as strong and relevant business deserving recognition equal to urban businesses. Second, on an issue that was not part of the goals of the study, the identification of needs for compensation, not only for loss of assets, but also for ongoing increases of operational costs. Participants, in contrast to the study’s thematically organized overlay analysis which resulted in a fragmented determination of impacts based on readily available public information, emphasized the need to use the farm (business) as a functional whole against which to measure impacts, considering its overall operation and viability. In the workshop it became clear that determining impacts on a complex entity like a farm is equally complex, and hard to map in a comprehensive way. Using maps not for a comprehensive analysis but for learning by illustration or example, however, offers opportunities in these cases. In practice this would require a review of what is considered as legitimate knowledge in formal decision-making.
Participants attitudes towards (the representation of) nature showed to widely divergent, and attachment to place was virtually not touched upon. The emphasis on agribusiness seemed to stem not only from material interests, but was also strongly related to identity.
Participants judged that the study cartography reflected a strong urban bias. They found that agriculture was underrepresented compared to urban economic and ecological interests and sometimes also misrepresented. Numerous suggestions were made to include new layers of data in the cartography, and to visually emphasize already included data related to agriculture. Although some information was found as redundant, is was above all the lack of more detailed information on agriculture and agribusiness that participants emphasized as issues they would like to see corrected. Whereas some data on some issues where emphasized as missing altogether, in other cases, notably in drainage, participants emphasized missing complementary perspectives. Information suggested by participants to be included mostly served to emphasize the importance of the agricultural sector as a whole and to spare it from impacts, but would create both technical and political difficulties if it were to be used for the comparison between different route options through rural lands.
Different types of metaphors played an important role in the sensemaking process by the participants. Some participants followed more rational approaches to sensemaking that emphasized the correctness and information content of the data, while others seemed to be stronger ware of the strategic-discursive role of the maps. Many participants judged the study cartography as little explicit and highly ambiguous in many aspects, an observation for which a plausible explanation is the MTO’s needs to make decisions not only based on technical evaluations, but also taking into account strong informal political forces which required the study team to be able to review its positions if necessary and justify them largely based on the maps.
Based on the research some recommendations for better public map use are suggested in order to make better use of the potential of cartography in planning to facilitate learning and mediation between multiple perspectives and interest.
Future research, using anthropological methods, observing the process of creation and use of maps in planning in action is suggested as important to move beyond the limitations of perspectives that emphasize maps as representations.

The role of the entrepreneur in the international new venture – opening the black boxGhannad, Navid January 2013 (has links)
Despite significant research output in recent decades on international new ventures (INVs),little attention has been paid to understanding the processes and conditions under whichthe entrepreneur identifies and exploits an opportunity and subsequently creates valuewithin the firm. As a result, the dynamics involved in the role of the entrepreneur during theestablishment and internationalization of INVs remain in a black box. In order to understandthe context, interaction among players and other dynamics involved before, during, and afterthe establishment of the INV’s creation and development, a different approach is needed. Theaim of this dissertation is to describe and understand the role of entrepreneurs in the processof establishment and internationalization of international new ventures. Three longitudinal case studies were conducted between 1999 and 2008 with a total of 108interviews using snowball sampling. In addition, comprehensive secondary data have beencollected to enrich the empirical cases with thick descriptions, and to enhance content validityas well as the reliability of the research. This study offers a more nuanced picture of how entrepreneurs’ characteristics influencethe international development of their firms. For example, it appears that it was neitherthe previous foreign experience, the education, nor the previously developed internationalnetwork (as suggested by previous literature) that can be credited for the rapid and vastinternationalization of the case firms. Instead, it is suggested that an entrepreneur’schildhood and prior life story directly influences their behaviour in the INV. We proposethat different types of entrepreneurs are important factors to understanding firms’ differentinternationalization patterns. Depending on the backgrounds of the entrepreneurs, theydeveloped preferences, skills, and especially desires that would come to affect the totalbehaviour of their future organizations. This study also develops the notion of psychicdistance into three separate spaces - the physical, the mental and the social space. Forexample, the context and experience during childhood creates the foundations for theentrepreneurs’ mental and social space, which can separately, but also in relation toeach other, offer a more accurate and deeper understanding of the actions taken by theentrepreneurs in the INV. Furthermore, this study has shown that the role and characteristicsof the entrepreneur do change over time, which also determines the individual’s sensitivity toopportunities and the international behaviour of the company.

Farmers making sense out of a cartographic landscape: Like a patchwork of clothes, rather than just chunks of... parcelsvan der Weijst, Johannes January 2012 (has links)

Towards Globo Sapiens : using reflective journals to prepare engineering students able to engage with sustainable futuresKelly, Patricia January 2006 (has links)
How do we help students to integrate their tertiary education with their development as " wise" global citizens and professionals? The study engages with this question through exploring the use of Reflective Journals as a central and integrating strategy for learning and assessment for a socially and culturally diverse group of students in a large, compulsory, first year, one-semester Engineering unit [BNB007: Professional Studies] between 2000 and 2004. The study supports the hypothesis that Reflective Journals can be an effective strategy for improving the often-criticised poor communication skills of domestic and international students in technical fields. For many students, the process of reflection also became a means of learning about their learning. Attitude surveys administered to students pre and post the teaching intervention in the years 2000-2002 showed positive changes in anticipated directions that encouraged further research. If attitude change was occurring in BNB007, what was the nature of the change? The research showed that at a deeper, longer term and more complex level, this new self-awareness supported many students to develop the kind of futures thinking and social learning " that will be necessary to navigate the transition to sustainable futures" (Raskin et al., 2002). The study contributes to the literature and to methodology through the first complementary use of two new methodologies, Sense-Making and Causal Layered Analysis. Thirty in-depth Sense-Making based interviews, including four with staff, indicate that 'meta-reflection' and transformative learning did take place. Expressing these qualities in the discourse of internationalisation as " global portability" or even " global competence" is unsatisfactory because these popular terms do not embody the qualities graduates need to create sustainable futures. As currently used, they mainly serve a market-dominated version of globalisation and its allied internationalisation-as-profit discourse. Raskin et al proposed a more appropriate term, " sustainability professionals", emerging from a preferred, valuesbased globalisation inspired by a vision of humane, sustainable futures that see " rights assured, nature treasured, culture rich and the human spirit animate" (p.70). This more challenging concept of a graduate for the 21st century is expressed here through the term Globo sapiens, whose qualities are identified in this study. Such professionals are willing to think critically and to assume responsibility for their impact on communities and the planet. This is the critical-futures oriented, transformative and therefore radical notion connoted by the title Towards Globo sapiens. This research identified some of the terrain and challenges of a post-development vision in a vocational area of teaching in Higher Education. It explained how particular students resisted or reconstructed their worlds when challenged at fundamental levels, but within a supportive atmosphere. Thus the study contributes to what educators might need to know, be and do, in order to teach effectively for the transformations urged by Sustainability Scientists, among others, and upon which any sustainable alternative futures depend. The study is underpinned by transdisciplinary syntheses that help to illuminate each area in new and fruitful ways.

Knowledge assets in enterprise architectureJoubert, Francois 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MPhil (Information Science))--University of Stellenbosch, 2010. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT:
Knowledge assets can be defined as anything that affects a business’s disposition to act on
data received from the environment. Knowledge assets are embedded in the objects within an
organisation and are the source of an organisation’s competitive advantage, by being closely
linked to what the organisation knows and by allowing the organisation to act and to be
innovative.
Knowledge assets evolve over time as knowledge agents, through a process of sense making,
substitute physical resources for informational resources by codifying and abstracting
knowledge assets, in the process increasing their value and ability to be diffused to wider
audiences. These knowledge assets are internalised in an organisation and impact on the
organisation when they are applied to concrete problems.
Knowledge assets play an important role in the creation of information assets in an
organisation. Information assets are created when a knowledge agent makes use of his or her
knowledge to make sense of data received from sources in the environment. The creation of
information through the sense making process creates new knowledge which is added to the
agent’s knowledge base.
Enterprise architecture is the process of designing future states for an organisation and then
planning, leading and governing the organisation towards that future state. Enterprise
architecture focuses mostly on the organisational process, on information and technology.
Enterprise architects make use of enterprise architecture frameworks such as TOGAF or the
Zachman framework, which are primarily concerned with the domains of business,
information and technology architecture, yet none of these mainstream frameworks used by
enterprise architects takes knowledge assets into account, despite the obviously important
role that they play in the organisation and especially in the information creation process.
This research proposes to show that knowledge assets have an important role to play in
enterprise architecture by allowing enterprise architects to
• identify or facilitate the creation of knowledge assets pertaining to a specific problem;
• understand whether information assets are located in the ordered and complex or the
chaotic regimes and what would be the implication of moving them between regimes; • plot knowledge assets movements and relationships to each other on the social learning
cycle path, which would enable enterprise architects to balance the types of learning that
the organisation employs;
• define the level of codification, abstraction and diffusion of knowledge assets, based on
the intended audiences and to understand where knowledge assets could be developed to
improve quality and when outdated knowledge should be destroyed in favour of new
knowledge.
Knowledge assets are related to Enterprise Business Architecture (EBA) through the specific
knowledge domains that exist within an organisation. Understanding whether knowledge
assets exist in the ordered, complex or chaotic regimes will provide a more complete view of
the organisation. Architecture of knowledge assets in this space will provide a better
understanding of an organisation’s culture: this understanding can compensate for differences
in knowledge agents’ spatio-temporal positions, how and when they receive data and their
particular cognitive styles.
The importance of knowledge assets in the creation of information links it emphatically with
Enterprise Information Architecture (EIA). Knowledge asset architecture provides a better
understanding of how information is created and flows through an organisation, taking into
account the meaning of the information to the organisation, which compensates for that
oversight in information theory, which regards the accuracy of data that is communicated as
the only concern.
Information technology has exponentially increased mankind’s ability to codify, abstract and
diffuse knowledge assets. Enterprise Technical Architecture (ETA) is mainly concerned with
the technology infrastructure implemented within an organisation. Enterprise architects can
apply knowledge asset architecture to decide whether the technology should be used to
enhance the codification and abstraction of information, allowing more efficient diffusion of
information to a larger audience, or whether more concrete information should be diffused to
a more closely-knit audience.
This research will argue that the use of knowledge assets as a domain within enterprise
architecture will greatly enhance the enterprise architect’s ability to understand and lead the
organisation to a more desirable future state. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING:
Kennisbates is vasgelê in die konkrete en abstrakte voorwerpe in die organisasie. Hierdie
voorwerpe omsluit alle voorwerpe wat ‘n effek het op hoe die organisasie reageer op data wat
vanaf die omgewing ontvang word. Kennisbates is ‘n bron vir die kompeterende voordeel wat
‘n organisasie geniet omdat dit verband hou met wat die organisasie weet en dit die
organisasie in staat stel om te innoveer.
Kennisbates sal aangaande evolueer soos wat kennisdraers, deur die sinmaak proses, fisiese
hulpbronne vervang met inligtings hulpbronne gedurende die proses van kodifisering en
abstraksie en sodoende die kennisbates se waarde vir die organisasie te verhoog en
beskikbaar te stel vir groter gehore. Die kennisbates word dan vasgelê in die organisasie
wanneer die kennis toegepas word op konkrete probleme.
Kennisbates speel ‘n belangrike rol in die skepping van inligtingsbates in die organisasie.
Inligting word slegs geskep wanneer die kennisdraer gebruik maak van sy kennis om sin te
maak van data onvang vanuit die omgewing. Die nuwe inligting word dan intern vasgelê in
die kennisdraer as nuwe kennis.
Ondernemingsargitektuur is ‘n proses waardeur die toekomstige staat van ‘n organisasie
ontwerp word deur beplanning, en daar verder leiding gegee word ter uitvoering daarvan.
Ondernemingsargitektuur fokus meestal op die organisasie se prosesse, inligting en
tegnologie. Ondernemingsargitekte maak gebruik van ondernemingsargitektuurraamwerke
soos TOGAF en die Zachmanraamwerk as riglyne vir hulle werk. Hierdie raamwerke fokus
primêr op die besigheid, inligting en tegniese domeine van argitektuur. Nie een van die
hoofstroom ondernemingsargitektuurraamwerke neem kennisbates in ag nie, ten spyte van
die voordiehandliggende belangrike rol wat kennisbates in die organisasie se
inligtingskeppingsproses speel.
Hierdie navorsing stel voor dat kennisbates deel kan vorm van ondernemingsargitektuur deur
ondernemingsargitekte toe te laat om
• kennisbates aangaande ‘n spesifieke probleem te identifiseer of die skepping daarvan
die fasiliteer, • te bepaal of die kennisbates in die geordende, komplekse of chaotiese regime bestaan
en wat die implikasie sou wees om hulle na ‘n ander regime te skuif, en
• die kennisbates op die sosiale leersiklus aan te stip, wat die ondernemingsargitek in
staat sal stel om die leerbenaderings van die organisasie te balanseer, die vlak van
kodifisering, abstraksie en verspreiding te definieer, gebaseer op die voornemende
gehoor vir die spesifieke inligting.
• beter begrip te hê daarvoor of die kennisbate na ‘n beter kwaliteit ontwikkel moet
word of vernietig moet word om plek te maak vir nuwe kennisbates.
Daar bestaan ‘n verwantskap tussen OBA (Ondernemingsbesigheidsargitektuur) deur die
spesifieke kennisdomein wat reeds in die organisasie bestaan. Deur te verstaan of die
kennisbates binne die geordende, komplekse of chaotiese regimes val sal beter begrip bied
van die organisasie as geheel. Al hierdie gesigshoeke word in die geordende domein beskryf.
Kennisbateargitektuur sal ‘n beter begrip van die organisasie se kultuur bewerkstellig. Die
kultuur in ‘n organisasie word gebruik om te vergoed vir die verskille in die kennisdraer se
tyd-ruimtelike ligging tydens die ontvangs van data asook hulle kognitiewe styl.
Daar bestaan ‘n daadwerklike verwantskap tussen kennisbateargitektuur en
Ondernemingsinligtingsargitektuur (OIA). Kennisbateargitektuur sal bydra tot die begrip van
hoe inligting geskep word en vloei deur die organisasie. Dit sal die betekenis van inligting in
ag neem en daardeur vergoed vir die tekortkoming van inligtingteorie wat slegs die
korrektheid van die data wat vervoer word in ag neem.
Inligtingstegnologie het die mens se vermoë om inligting te kodifiseer, abstraksie toe te pas
en te versprei eksponensieël verbeter. Ondernemingstegnieseargitektuur (OTA) is
hoofsaaklik verantwoordelik vir die tegnologiese infrastruktuur wat geïmplimenteer word
binne die organisasie. Ondernemingsargitekte kan kennisbates gebruik om te besluit of
tegnologie gebruik moet word om beter inligting te skep deur hoër kodifisering en abstraksie
toe te pas, om daardeur die vermoë te skep om die inligting vir ‘n wyer gehoor beskikbaar te
stel, of om meer konkrete inligting vir ‘n meer intieme gehoor beskikbaar te stel.
Hierdie navorsing stel voor dat kennisbates as ‘n domein binne die ondernemingsargitektuur
vervat word. Dit sal die ondernemingsargitek in staat stel om die organisasie beter te lei na ‘n
wenslike toekomstige staat.

Critique du déterminisme de la relation désordre - (in)fiabilité : cas de l'exploitation ferroviaire / Examining the relationship between disorder and reliability in a high reliability organisationRocves, Terry 02 December 2016 (has links)
La fiabilité organisationnelle concerne l’étude des conditions organisationnelles permettant à un système organisé complexe de maintenir des niveaux de fiabilité compatibles à la fois avec les exigences de sécurité et les exigences économiques. Les études effectuées sur le fonctionnement des organisations à haute fiabilité mettent en avant un ensemble de pratiques et de dispositifs mis en place au sein de ces organisations, tant au niveau de l’individu et du groupe qu’au niveau de l’organisation, qui permettent à celles-ci de gérer et d’exploiter efficacement des systèmes techniques complexes à risques. Dans la lignée des différents apports sur ce qui fait la fiabilité au sein de telles entreprises, ce travail vise à démontrer la prise en compte du désordre, comme une des logiques organisationnelles, participant à la fiabilité de l’entreprise. En ce sens, une conceptualisation du désordre en tant qu’organisateur (désordre organisationnel) est proposée. À la suite de cette conceptualisation, la thèse démontre dans quelle mesure le désordre, par le biais de lamise en place d’organisations informelles stratifiées sur l’organisation formelle existante, permet de résorber et de restreindre les effets des perturbations. Le désordre est analysé comme catalyseur intrinsèque de la création de sens, participant à la fiabilité. En discutant la considération du désordre comme étant essence même de l’organisation, ce travail analyse l’approche normative sous-jacente dans la conception même de l’organisation et la fiabilité de celle-ci. / The study of high organizational reliability refers to the examination of conditions that allow a complex organized system to maintain high levels of reliability consistent with both security and economic requirements. Studies on the functioning of High Reliability Organizations (HRO) feature a set of practices and mechanisms implemented within these organizations - at the individual, group and organizational levels - which enable them to manage and operate effectively complex technicalsystems at risk. In line with the contributions on what contribute to high reliability in such companies, this work aims to demonstrate the consideration of disorder, as one of the organizational logics, supporting reliability of the company. In this sense, a conceptualization of disorder as an organizing component (organizational disorder) is proposed. As a result of this conceptualization, the thesis demonstrates to what extent organizational disorder, through the establishment ofinformal organizations stratified on the existing formal ones, can reduce and limit the effects of disruptions. Disorder is analyzed as an intrinsic catalyst of sensemaking, partaking to high reliability. By discussing the consideration of disorder as the very essence of the organization, the thesis also debates upon the underlying normative approach in the very conception of the organization and its ensuant high reliability.
