The Four Operational Logics of the Performance Management Systems of Basic Academic Organizations at Universities:Based on the Perspective of Case Comparison Analysis
The performance management systems of basic academic organizations are the institutional foundation for promoting the university to realize the strategic goal.Based on the institutional logics theory,this study compared the performance management practices of four Schools at S University.The findings reveal that the state logic,the bureaucratic logic,the market logic and the academic profession logic are the four institutional logics for the operation of the performance management systems of basic academic organizations.These four logics respectively represent the action framework,action decision,action resources and action consensus.The mature bureaucratic logic and the multilevel market logic are the common conditions for basic academic organizations to achieve the expected performance.The understable and unbalanced bureaucratic logics are the similar causes which may lead to the basic academic organizations'failure to achieve the expected performance.The strong market logic could be the beneficial complement for the weak academic profession logic and the weak bureaucratic logic.The conclusion has practical implications for continuously improving the overall performance and governance effectiveness of basic academic organizations.
