Summary: Organizations act, but what determines how and when they will act? There is precedent for believing that the organization is but an extension of one or a few people, but this is a deceptively simplified approach and, in reality, makes any generalization in organizational theory enormously difficult. Modern-day organizations?manufacturing firms, hospitals, schools, armies, community agencies?are extremely complex in nature, and several strategies, employing a variety of disciplines, are needed to gain a proper understanding of them.
