The mounting evidence of maladaptive responses to turbulent environments is the second reason for undertaking this challenge. More specifically, the prevalence of stalemate, polarization, and monothematic dogmatism-the second-order maladaptive responses to the turbulent environment-leads to the frozen or clinched order of connectedness as well as unevenly turbulent conditions. Consequently, a different causal texture of an organizational environment can be added to the previous levels (placed, random; placid, clustered; disturbed-reactive; and turbulent).EnglishBook Chapter10.9783/9781512819069-01110.9783/97815128190699781512819069
