Management and organizational studies have traditionally relied on the concepts of growth and development. Due to the juxtaposition of these terms and their diverse implications, there may be some confusion and misinterpretation in academic and practical contexts. The aim of the research was to investigate the definitions and functions of growth and development in management and the organizational sphere in order to offer a better understanding of the varied roles of these concepts and their contributions to organizational evolution. To accomplish this, a comprehensive study of the literature was conducted, in which a review of seminal publications and major contributions by notable researchers was carried out and various scholars’ perspectives on growth and development were assessed. Furthermore, an effort was made to identify major themes, similarities, and differences in the available literature. This study showed that the main focus of growth is quantitative expansion. Development, on the other hand, is concerned with qualitative advancements. It is also argued that growth and development should be sought continuously in order for an organization to remain successful in the long run, since they may be inextricably linked. Based on these findings, a conceptual framework is presented that converges growth and development in the organization as a system for long-term sustainability. By adopting this frame- work as the foundation for future research, scholars and practitioners will be able to better understand the different yet interconnected nature of growth and development in organizations. Furthermore, this study may provide assistance to managers striving to navigate growth and development, allowing for a more managerial approach to organizational success in a rapidly changing global environment.

Studia nad zarządzaniem i organizacją w sposób tradycyjny opierają się na koncepcji wzrostu i rozwoju. Ze względu na zestawienie tych terminów i ich różnorodne implikacje może dojść do pewnego zamieszania i błędnej interpretacji w kontekście akademickim i praktycznym. Niniejsze badania mają na celu analizę definicji oraz funkcji wzrostu i rozwoju w zarządzaniu oraz sferze organizacyjnej w celu lepszego zrozumienia zróżnicowanych ról tych pojęć i ich wkładu w ewolucję organizacyjną. Aby to osiągnąć, przeprowadzony został kompleksowy przegląd literatury obejmujący analizę przełomowych publikacji i wkładu wybitnych uczonych oraz ocenę perspektyw dotyczących wzrostu i rozwoju proponowanych przez różnych badaczy. Ponadto podjęto próbę identyfikacji głównych tematów, podobieństw i różnic zawartych w dostępnej literaturze. Niniejsze badania ukazują, że głównym naciskiem wzrostu jest ekspansja ilościowa. Rozwój natomiast dotyczy aspektów jakościowych. W badaniach zawarte są argumenty mówiące o tym, że do wzrostu i rozwoju, które są ze sobą nierozerwalnie złączone, powinno dążyć się w sposób nieprzerwany po to, aby zapewnić organizacji osiąganie sukcesów w długiej perspektywie czasu. Na podstawie wyników badań zaprezentowano koncepcyjną strukturę łączącą wzrost i rozwój organizacji w system długoterminowego ekorozwoju. Przyjmując niniejszą strukturę jako podstawę do dalszych badań, uczeni i praktycy będą w stanie lepiej zrozumieć różną, choć wzajemnie połączoną naturę wzrostu i rozwoju w organizacjach. Ponadto badania te mogą wspomóc menadżerów w kwestiach dotyczących wzrostu i rozwoju, pozwalając na wykształcenie podejścia kierowniczego w stosunku do osiągania sukcesu organizacyjnego w szybko zmieniającym się środowisku globalnym.
