MGMT20094 Organisational Analysis

This course locates business within its organisational context by integrating the structural determinants of behaviour with the individual and social dimensions. As such it draws upon both organisational psychology and organisational sociology, acknowledging the complementary perspectives of these two disciplines. Macro and micro approaches are not delineated but both brought to bear on the tensions between centralisation and decentralisation, control and freedom, rigidity and flexibility, labour and management, conservation and innovation, self and others, etc. which characterise all organisations.
