Organizations often learn vicariously by observing what other organizations do. Our study examines vicarious learning–related communication through which individuals share their observations with other organizational members. Most students and members of present-day organizations would expect that this communication is driven by a prodevelopment logic—that communication serves the purpose of organizational improvement and competitiveness. Our unique historical evidence on learning-related communication over multiple decades shows that the subjective and collective attitude toward prodevelopment communication may be ideologically conditioned. Prodevelopment communication is the norm in capitalist organizations, but competing ideologies may emphasize other goals higher than organizational development. Consequently, increasing challenges to capitalism as the ideological basis of economic organization can have deep impacts on how organizations learn and produce innovations in the future.

The central thesis of this paper is that the maximum gains in organizational effectiveness through management training will be experienced when that training is provided in a functional context derived from operating problems of the organization itself. A corollary is that the training will be more effective when the examination of organizational problems or organizational performance is accomplished with the aid of a third-person consultant or referee in some form.

Organizations and employees can plan on one certainty, “Change”. Change is one result of organizational development, and it will continue in the future. In the background of these factors are the corporation changes, and the human dimension which managers and society must contend with. As changes in the new direction of the corporation are planned, employees will have to plan their direction as well. The focus of this paper is on how jobs will be restructured in the year 2000. This restructuring of the workforce is a result of new organizational development and job changes. A discussion on the causes of these changes are followed by an illustration of what the restructured jobs will consist of, and how to adapt.
