Abstract

Scholars studying organizational change have long recognized how organizational actors interpret changes before acting on them, and have focused on explaining how managers frame managerial issues to gain shared meaning among organizational members. We consider how sociopolitical issues, as the social context in which shared meaning occurs, plays a role in shaping organizational change and the adoption of practices. Sociopolitical issues, such as protecting the environment, moderate the relationship between economic and institutional reasons and the adoption of practices. We offer a way to explain how social issues find its way into organizational life through incremental everyday experiences.
