This popular book takes a combination strategic/systems approach to the study of organization theory. Completely updated with current cases and examples, the 5th Edition now offers the expertise of co-author Lawrence Gates who has given the book a more simplified writing style. KEY TOPICS: Divided into five major parts, it begins by examining the organization's outside (macro) environment and the way that organizations develop systems to link up with and know this environment; studies information management and strategy formulation; considers such traditional organization theory subjects as goals, design, and structure; concludes with an analysis of the more dynamic aspects of modern organization theory, culture, conflict, power, authority, politics, and change. For management professionals.
