Organizational teams operate in increasingly volatile environments in which the speed and degree of change accelerates, demanding rapid adaptation processes namely of the improvisational type. It is therefore essential to understand how to prepare teams to operate in such contexts. This work investigates the effects of team mental model similarity, in-action reflexivity, and transitional reflexivity on team-improvised adaptation performance and on team-improvised adaptation learning. Two experiments were conducted with a total of 121 teams. We manipulated the independent variables and used an overtime design to measure team-improvised adaptation learning. Our findings suggest that teams operating in unpredictable environments that require rapid adaptation should be able to reflect collectively, both while acting and between tasks. These teams should also develop a common understanding of the main elements of the context and the task, so that they are effective in the face of unpredictability and rapid change.

组织团队在瞬息万变的环境中运作，在这种环境中，变化的速度和程度加快了，要求快速即适应即兴的适应过程。因此，必须了解如何准备团队在这种情况下开展业务。这项工作调查了团队心理模型相似性，行动中反思和过渡反思对团队改进的适应表现和团队改进的适应学习的影响。总共121个小组进行了两个实验。我们操纵了独立变量，并使用了加班设计来衡量团队改进的适应性学习。我们的研究结果表明，在需要快速适应的不可预测环境中运作的团队应该能够在行动时和任务之间共同反映。
