, Chapter 1: Organizations and their changing
environments
A view of organizations
Organizations can be seen as people interacting in some kind of structured or organized way to
achieve some defined purpose or goal.
Illustration 1.1: According to Daft, an organization can be described as follows: (1) a social entity that
(2) has goals and purpose, (3) has boundaries, so that some participants are considered inside while
others are considered outside, and (4) patterns the activities of participants into a recognizable
structure.
Figure 1.1 identifies the main elements of most organizations and their functioning:
Silverman challenged the idea of organizations as systems since the notion rests on an assumption
that defining an organization’s goals is uncontentious and that, within the organization, there is
consensus as to what its goals are. Out of this critique came forth the ‘social action’ approach to
understanding organizations, this became recognized as an alternative view to the idea of
organizations as systems.
Stacy’s idea of organizations as complex systems emphasizes the notion of unpredictability by
emphasizing the multitude of interactions in and between the individual, social, organizational and
environmental domains.
An uncertain future
Most commentators or organizations agree that business conditions continue to be increasingly
complex and more uncertain as the pace for change quickens and the future becomes more
unpredictable. What seems incontestable is that both public and private sectors continue to face
fast-moving change, even if the exact nature of the changes needed is not always clear.
