, Theme 2: Organizations, Groups, & Leadership

 All companies are organizations, but not all organizations are companies
 Descriptive (how existing organizations work) vs prescriptive (how they should work)
theories
 Organizations as open systems:
o 1. Import energy, 2. transform energy, 3. output, 4. cycle of events, 5. escaping from
entropy (so it survives), 6. input of info, 7. homeostasis, 8. specialization, 9.
coordination and integration, 10. equifinality
 Organizational theories:
o Bureaucracy (improvement compared to situation then)
 Objective: eliminate privileges, inefficiency (suitable for job, not bc of
birthright)
 Characteristics:
 Division of labor and task specialization
 Hierarchy based on legitimized authority and delegation of authority
 Recruitment, selection and careers based on competencies
 Regulations and procedures
 Impersonal = “a blessing!”
 Fewer KSAO’s, but more supervisors
o Taylorism (micro level, dividing into smaller tasks)
 “Scientific management” -> time and motion studies (detailed mapping)
 Employees as machines
 Pay based on performance
 Employees are lazy…
o Human relations
 Organization /= machine
 Human behavior influenced not only by externally imposed rules, but also by
attention, respect, interest, and interpersonal contact
 Hawthorne studies
o theory x (traditional model) -> theory y (human relations model)
 theory z: long-term employment is basis for effective organizations (bc of
higher employee commitment
o Sociotechnical systems
 Joint optimization; each system = technical and social
 Best of both worlds
 Unit control of variances; (semi)-self-directing team
 Supervisor’s role is to facilitate
 Only works if underlying support system (task assignments) is aligned with
this
 Principles for structuring an organization
o 1. Division of labor (job differentiation) -> who does what?
o 2. Delegation of authority
 Power -> who control and decides
 Communication and control -> who reports what to whom
o 3. Span of control
 Number employees ranking directly below you -> depends on skills, type of
leadership style
 Narrow (more rules) vs. wide (more autonomy and trust in employees)
o 4. Line vs staff position (deciders vs advisors)
 Organizational structure
o Functional structure: people with same job/function put together
 Only with small organization
