Emergent learning during crisis: A case study of the arctic circle border crossing at Storskog in Norway

Abstract: This explorative study addresses emergent learning related to the refugee crisis in Norway in 2015. We define emergent learning as organizational learning that occurs as a benign by‐product of solving immediate problems as they arise. The study is based mainly on secondary data; media coverage, public evaluation report, and other public documentation. The results from empirical research confirm that emergent learning has had a profound influence on how the Storskog crisis in 2015 was managed. Our findings also… Show more

“…Lessons learned, in turn, provide insights to enhance capacity building and improve the entire EMS to be better prepared for handling the next event/incident (Figure 1). Such a process can be understood as “crisis‐induced learning” (Broekema et al, 2017; Brown‐Devlin et al, 2020; Steen & Rønningsbakk, 2021). In our case, OFFB interacts with several O&G companies in different geographical areas, it has access to a wide range of resources (e.g., information and key personnel).…”

“…Lessons learned, in turn, provide insights to enhance capacity building and improve the entire EMS to be better prepared for handling the next event/incident (Figure 1). Such a process can be understood as "crisis-induced learning" (Broekema et al, 2017;Brown-Devlin et al, 2020;Steen & Rønningsbakk, 2021) We looked into the OFFB's evaluation report to understand how evaluators used various perspectives to interpret experiences during WP's ERO. The findings indicate that the insights provided in the report were balanced and gave recognition to the involved actors' adaptive behavior and creativity, informal decision-making, and comments about shortcomings of the existing ER plans.…”

“…Research in crisis learning is emerging [47][48][49][50], and relevant prior research has provided an important foundation for this study. Still, there is room for further expansion as follows: First, from a methodological perspective, most of the existing crisis learning research is based on discursive induction and case-based deduction [51,52], with case descriptions, textual analysis, and empirical summaries, thus lacking a concrete understanding of positivism. Second, the research perspective gradually extends from intra-organizational to inter-organizational learning [53,54].…”

“…Emergencies create challenges for organizations by putting them in settings where they stretch operational boundaries and manifest adaptive capacities [ 1 , 2 ]. However, they also represent a chance for changes in policy reforms, institutional overhaul, and even leadership revival [ 3 , 4 ]. Adaptive capacity and willingness to change are key elements for embracing such learning opportunities [ [5] , [6] , [7] ].…”
