al Theories
Dr.Samta Soni
Theory
1. A theory can be defined as a set of
ideas or related concepts that can be
used to explain and understand an
event, situation, or social phenomena.
2. Social phenomena are considered as
including all behavior which influences
or is influenced by organisms
sufficiently alive to respond to one
another (John Markey, 1926).
Organization
1. A group of people with a defined relationship
in which they work together to achieve the
goals of that organization.
Organization Theory
1. Organization Theory is a set of theories that explain and help us
understand how organizations function.
2. Organizations and people within organizations are the focus of
organization theory. Organization theories could focus on the total
organization, groups of employees such as departments or divisions,
or on individual employees.
3. These theories offer ideas, models, and tools to design and manage
effective organizations.
4. These theories can help us understand the interconnections between
different parts of an organization and manage the complexity of
organizations.
Organizational theories
1. The term organization refers to the group
of individuals who come together to perform
a set of tasks with the intent to accomplish
the common objectives.
2. Thus, the relationships between the
individuals working together and their
overall effect on the performance of the
organization is well explained through the
organizational theories.
1. Organization theory is a set of concepts, and principles that
provide framework for systematic study of structure,
functioning and performance of organization and of the
behavior of individuals and groups working in them.
2. Organization theory explains how organization structures
are built. It also suggests how organization can be designed to
improve their effectiveness
Organizational theories Examines
Types
Classical
Theory
Neo-Classical
Theory
Modern Theory
Classical theory
1. It is the oldest theory of organization.
2. It originated from the writings of classical management
thinkers such as Taylor and Fayol.
3. According to the classical theory, the organization is
considered as a machine and the human beings as different
components/parts of that machine.
4. In Classical theory, more emphasis is on the organization
rather than the employees working therein.
Characteristics
1. It lays emphasis on detecting errors and correcting them once they have
been committed.
2. 2. It focuses on objectives and tasks and not on the human beings
performing the tasks.
3. 3. The human beings are considered to be relatively homogeneous and
unmodifiable. Thus, labor is not divided on the basis of different kinds of
jobs to be performed in an organization.
4. 4. It is assumed that employees are relatively stable in terms of the
change, in an organization.
5. 5. It aims at maximizing control.
Criticism of classical theory
1. It ignores human aspect and views human beings as components of the
organization machine.
2. It believes that people at work can be motivated solely through monetary
incentives.
3. It is an authoritarian theory.
4. It is based on certain principles which are based mainly on experience and
not tested by scientific researches.
5. It regards organization as a closed system instead of open system.
6. Thus it ignores the influence of external factors on organization and its
members
Neoclassical theory
1. The neoclassical theory originated from the findings of famous
Hawthorne experiments conducted under the leadership of
Mayo.
2. The neoclassical school focuses attention on human beings
and their behavior in organizations.
3. According to this theory, the organization is the social
system, and its performance does get affected by the human
actions.
Neoclassical theory contd….
1. The Neo Classical theory posits that an organization is the combination of
both the formal and informal forms of organization, which is ignored by the
classical organizational theory.
2. The informal structure of the organization formed due to the social
interactions between the workers and gets affected by the formal structure
of the organization.
3. Usually, the conflicts between the organizational and individual interest
exist, thus the need to integrate these arises.
1. The social environment on the job affects people and is also affected by the
people.
2. 2. Integration between organizational and individual goals is a must.
3. 3. Money is only one of the motivators but not the sole.
4. 4. Two way communication is necessary for sound functioning of the
organization.
5. 5. Team work is essential for cooperation and higher productivity.
Characteristics
Criticism
1. It is not a new theory of organizations.
2. It is merely a modification of classical theory.
3. The structures of organization suggested by this theory are not
suitable in all situations.
4. The theory over- emphasizes on human aspect.
5. Consequently, other aspects remained ignored or neglected.
Modern theory
1. The modern theory of organization views organization as a
system.
2. The Modern theory is the integration of valuable concepts
of the classical models with the social and behavioral
sciences.
3. This theory posits that an organization is a system that
changes with the change in its environment, both internal and
external.
Characteristics
1. It considers organization as a system composed of many subsystems such as
managerial, technical, social sub system.
2. It regards individual as complex being who can be motivated in multitude of ways.
3. It is multi- disciplinary theory as draws concepts and principles from several
disciplines such as sociology, psychology, economics, engineering and so on.
4. It covers both the micro and macro environment of the organization. The macro
environment is external to the organization, while the micro environment is internal
to the organization.
5. It ensures better flow of communication at all the levels and ensures effective
control.
Contd.
1. The modern theory considers the organization as an open system. This means an
organization consistently interacts with its environment, so as to sustain and grow in
the market. Thus, this theory differs from the classical theory where the organization
is considered as a closed system.
2. Since the organization is treated as an open system, whose survival and growth is
determined by the changes in the environment, the organization is said to be
adaptive in nature, which adjusts itself to the changing environment.
3. The modern theory is probabilistic and not deterministic in nature. A deterministic
model is one whose results are predetermined and whereas the results of the
probabilistic models are uncertain and depends on the chance of occurrence.
Criticism
1. It is not a unified theory of organization but a mixture of several theories.
2. It is based on past empirical studies and there is nothing new in it.
Scientific Management Theory
1. This was one of the earliest theories that applied
engineering knowledge to management. The theory
focuses on individual labor efficiency and productivity.
It analyzes and synthesizes workflows with the
intention of improving the economic efficiency of
employees.
2. Scientific management is also known as Taylorism,
after its pioneer Frederick Winslow Taylor.
Weber’s Ideal of Bureaucracy
1. The bureaucratic theory was popularized by the
German sociologist Max Weber in 1905. He proposed
running the organization with a rigid structure and a
well-defined hierarchy governed by tough procedures
and rules.
2. He wanted a robust bureaucratic structure operated
by officials who follow the rules.
The Decision-Making Theory
1. This theory was developed by Nobel Laureate
Herbert A. Simon (for the same research in
1978).
2. He considered an organization to be a
structure of decision-makers. Those made at
the top level cascade to the lower level. Lower
levels also make decisions, but the most
important ones are at the top. This decision-
making accepts the hierarchy of an
organization.
Modern Organizational Theory
1. This does not consider an organization as
a closed system.
2. The organization is an open system, and
the surrounding environment impacts it.
3. The environment can be internal or
external.
Organization chart
1. An organizational chart is a graphical representation
of the roles, responsibilities, and relationship between
individuals within an organization and it is a simple
way to visualize how workflows within a business.
2. It can be used to depict the structure of an
organization as a whole or broken down by
departments or units.
Purpose of organization chart

The structures of organization suggested by this theory are not suitable in all situations. 4. The theory over- emphasizes on human aspect. 5. Consequently, other aspects remained ignored or neglected.
  • 19. Modern theory 1. The modern theory of organization views organization as a system. 2. The Modern theory is the integration of valuable concepts of the classical models with the social and behavioral sciences. 3. This theory posits that an organization is a system that changes with the change in its environment, both internal and external.
  • 20. Characteristics 1. It considers organization as a system composed of many subsystems such as managerial, technical, social sub system. 2. It regards individual as complex being who can be motivated in multitude of ways. 3. It is multi- disciplinary theory as draws concepts and principles from several disciplines such as sociology, psychology, economics, engineering and so on. 4. It covers both the micro and macro environment of the organization. The macro environment is external to the organization, while the micro environment is internal to the organization. 5. It ensures better flow of communication at all the levels and ensures effective control.
  • 21. Contd. 1. The modern theory considers the organization as an open system. This means an organization consistently interacts with its environment, so as to sustain and grow in the market. Thus, this theory differs from the classical theory where the organization is considered as a closed system. 2. Since the organization is treated as an open system, whose survival and growth is determined by the changes in the environment, the organization is said to be adaptive in nature, which adjusts itself to the changing environment. 3. The modern theory is probabilistic and not deterministic in nature. A deterministic model is one whose results are predetermined and whereas the results of the probabilistic models are uncertain and depends on the chance of occurrence.
  • 22. Criticism 1. It is not a unified theory of organization but a mixture of several theories. 2. It is based on past empirical studies and there is nothing new in it.
  • 23. Scientific Management Theory 1. This was one of the earliest theories that applied engineering knowledge to management. The theory focuses on individual labor efficiency and productivity. It analyzes and synthesizes workflows with the intention of improving the economic efficiency of employees. 2. Scientific management is also known as Taylorism, after its pioneer Frederick Winslow Taylor.
  • 24. Weber’s Ideal of Bureaucracy 1. The bureaucratic theory was popularized by the German sociologist Max Weber in 1905. He proposed running the organization with a rigid structure and a well-defined hierarchy governed by tough procedures and rules. 2. He wanted a robust bureaucratic structure operated by officials who follow the rules.
  • 25. The Decision-Making Theory 1. This theory was developed by Nobel Laureate Herbert A. Simon (for the same research in 1978). 2. He considered an organization to be a structure of decision-makers. Those made at the top level cascade to the lower level. Lower levels also make decisions, but the most important ones are at the top. This decision- making accepts the hierarchy of an organization.
  • 26. Modern Organizational Theory 1. This does not consider an organization as a closed system. 2. The organization is an open system, and the surrounding environment impacts it. 3. The environment can be internal or external.
