Title Organizations / by James G. March and Herbert A. Simon with the collaboration of Harold Guetzkow.
Published New York : Wiley, [c1958]
- This book is about the theory of formal organizations. [Organizational actors] weave supportive cultures, agreements, structures, and beliefs around their activities. This melange of organizational behaviors is the focus of this book. We try to understand how collections of individuals and groups coordinate themselves in relatively systematic ways. The central unifying construct of the present book is . . . decision making, and the flow of information within organizations that instructs, informs, and supports decision making processes.
