However, few people realize that the fundamental problem of the external business environment and internal management of the environment is the issue of system. That is the system changes in the environment determines the enterprise should make the appropriate changes in a timely manner.In this paper, theoretical analysis and empirical study are both adopted. And it's from the perspective of institutional change theory of institutional economics to start, based on drawing on a wide range of domestic and foreign institutional change theory and its application in practice, and focused on the study of how the regular pattern of institutional change determines the enterprise organization structural change. This study argues that the "potential profit" of institutional change is the internal dynamics of a change in the organizational structure, path dependence is the biggest obstacle to change, and in the way of organization change, the enterprises organizational structure change has the common points with different levels of institutional change. On this basis, this paper presents the general process of change in organizational structure and models, trying to find general regulations of enterprises organizational structure change, as to provide an alternative attempt of the research in the enterprise organizational structure change, and as to play a practical role in guiding changes in the organizational structure of enterprises in practice. At the same time, this paper demonstrates the important role of the learning mechanism for continuous innovation of the enterprise organizational structure, for encouraging enterprises to overcome the path dependence, and for realization of the path of innovation in circulation mechanism of the organizational structure change.
