Samenvatting

Organization happens in the act of working with others to accomplish a desired future state. It can happen through intentionally designed activity, spontaneous improvisation, or some combination of the two, but it always requires coordinated effort. This Very Short Introduction provides a lively and thought provoking introduction to the topic.



Most of us recognize that organizations are everywhere. You meet them on every street corner in the form of families and shops, study in them, work for them, buy from them, pay taxes to them. But have you given much thought to where they came from, what they are today, and what they might become in the future? How and why do they have so much influence over us, and what influences them? How do they contribute to and detract from the meaningfulness of lives, and how might we improve them so they better serve our needs and desires? This Very Short Introductions addresses all of these questions and considers many more. Mary Jo Hatch introduces the concept of organizations by presenting definitions and ideas drawn from the a variety of subject areas including the physical sciences, economics, sociology, psychology, anthropology, literature, and the visual and performing arts. Drawing on examples from prehistory and everyday life, from the animal kingdom as well as from business, government, and other formal organizations, Hatch provides a lively and thought provoking introduction to the process of organization. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

  • Concise, clear and clarifying

    Positieve punten

    • Toegankelijk
    • Heldere uitleg

    A compact, well written book explaining how views on organization(s) and organizing developed over time.
    For students and academics it would serve as a compact introduction to organization studies.
    For practitioners it may be an eyeopener, showing other ways to look at their everyday experience inside their organization, which usually leads to new solutions to persistent problems.

    • Praktisch toepasbaar

    Negatieve punten

    • Onoverzichtelijk
    • soms te omslachtig verwoord.

    Je moet het hebben voor je school hea, maar het is niet een al te best boek vol met meningen van de schrijver.
