Modelo de estructura organizacional para el fomento de la auto-organización empresarial: incrementado su agilidad para dar respuesta a las condiciones cambiantes del entorno.

Abstract

Las estructuras jerárquicas de control en las empresas son lentas e ineficientes en detectar y hacer frente a los estímulos ambientales, ya que no logran recopilar, interpretar y sintetizar grandes volúmenes de información, lo que dificulta significativamente el aprovechamiento de oportunidades y la mitigación de amenazas del entorno. Actualmente, se han realizado esfuerzos para reducir esta tendencia por medio de estructuras adaptables a las condiciones del entorno, tales como las estructuras en red, celulares o por proyectos entre otras. Se ha encontrado que, a pesar de que el desempeño de estas organizaciones aumenta de forma importante, no logran del todo mejorar su capacidad de respuesta ante estas condiciones pues conservan todavía principios de las jerarquías de control y heredan también sus problemas. A partir de la revisión de la literatura sobre sistemas adaptativos complejos, se encontró que son los más eficientes en procesamiento de información y particularmente la propiedad de auto-organización, puede superar las deficiencias de las estructuras organizacionales actuales. El presente trabajo, utiliza una metodología que recoge principios epistemológicos cualitativos y cuantitativos a partir de investigación fundamentada para diseñar un modelo de estructura que fomente la auto-organización y que incremente la agilidad organizacional; es decir, incrementando la rapidez que tienen las organizaciones para aprovechar las oportunidades y mitigar las amenazas del entorno. Dicho modelo se validó por medio de simulación basada en agentes, la cual permitiría comparar las características de una estructura organizacional que promueva el surgimiento de la auto-organización en las empresas respecto a una estructura jerárquica tradicional. Como resultado de esta investigación se espera evaluar si la propuesta de estructura sigue principios de auto-organización y mejora la agilidad de la organización.

Hierarchical control structures in companies are slow and inefficient in detecting and dealing with environmental stimuli, as they fail to collect, interpret and synthesize large volumes of information, which significantly hinders the exploitation of opportunities and the mitigation of environmental threats. Currently, efforts have been made to reduce this tendency by means of structures adaptable to environmental conditions, such as networked, cellular or project-based structures, among others. It has been found that, although the performance of these organizations increases significantly, they do not fully improve their ability to respond to these conditions because they still retain the principles of control hierarchies and also inherit their problems. From the review of the literature on complex adaptive systems, it was found that they are the most efficient in information processing and particularly the property of self-organization, can overcome the deficiencies of the current organizational structures. This paper uses a methodology that gathers qualitative and quantitative epistemological principles from grounded research to design a structure model that fosters self-organization and increases organizational agility; that is, increasing the speed at which organizations can take advantage of opportunities and mitigate environmental threats. This model was validated by means of agent-based simulation, which would allow comparing the characteristics of an organizational structure that promotes the emergence of self-organization in companies with respect to a traditional hierarchical structure. As a result of this research, it is expected to evaluate whether the proposed structure follows self-organization principles and improves organizational agility.
