Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In recent years, the importance of “organizational ambidexterity,” which simultaneously pursues two types of organizational learning, exploration and exploitation, has been pointed out. The purpose of this research is to empirically analyze management control systems that balance these two types of organizational learning. As a result of survey research analysis, the main results of this research are as follows. Budgeting is an essential component of management control systems, and Japanese companies fall into three categories, “flexible budgeting,” “tightly-controlled budgeting,” and “loose budgeting.” Among these, companies classified under tightly-controlled budgeting showed a high degree of organizational learning called exploration and exploitation, suggesting that the two are being balanced.
