As an organizational learning mode, improvisation has some unique advantages in creating novel and unanticipateed activities which is an important source of innovation. In the process of innovation the excellence of improvisation rest with the creation of novel activities and settlement of the emergent problems. And the shortage consists in the knowledge accumulation for future innovation because of the weak relation between learning activities and desired outcome. For the sake of its own characteristics, improvisation could exert its role significantly in some environmental conditions and weakly in some others. In order to use improvisation efficiently and effectively, corporations should change the duration and frequency of improvisation applied under different circumstances. The paper discuss how improvisation in innovation evolved as conditions varied from two dimensions which include environmental uncertainty and organizational age. A model was followed to conclude the distinction between different conditions.
