Abstract

organizational inertia is a significant disruptive factor in the functional adaptability of organizations to their environment. This study was conducted with the aim of identifying the antecedents and consequences of organizational inertia in Iran. The study was characterized as a review typology and relied on a Systematic Review method. The implementation of the Systematic Review was based on a structured protocol that included three major phases: research antecedents (defining the main question and question pattern), research process (determining eligibility criteria, search strategy, article selection process, and data extraction), and research outcomes (providing an overview of studies and qualitatively synthesizing findings). Ultimately, 30 articles met the final criteria for data description and synthesis. Descriptive results indicated that most studies were published in management journals, based on a quantitative approach, utilized survey methods, and focused on employee groups. Additionally, from a temporal perspective, the studies had been conducted over the past ten years, with their main issue centering on the explanation of organizational inertia. Qualitative findings also revealed that the antecedents of organizational inertia could be categorized into seven themes (structural, managerial, cognitive, communicative, capability-based, benefit-oriented, and behavioral), while the consequences of organizational inertia could be classified into four themes (normative, cognitive, performance-related, and behavioral). Given the indispensable role of organizational inertia in inhibiting the functioning of organizations in an era of change, there is an urgent need for studies adopting a systems approach to address the issue of organizational inertia.
