All organization operate in a specific internal and
external environments. In the following figure, component of internal
environment are given. These components directly or indirectly
develop conscious mind and unconscious mind of any organization.
Simplified argument is that all organizations, like human beings, carry
conscious and unconscious minds. Development of organization conscious
mind is a deliberate effort of an organization and can be viewed and
assessed easily by its policy, power structure, reward system etc.
Organizations commence their operations by having some sort of conscious
mind from the day one. On the contrary, unconscious mind is developed at
the later stage when various components interact with each other. The
interesting point is that organizations has little direct control on the
development of unconscious mind, however they can have some indirect
influence through the component of conscious mind. Another interesting
is that individuals play a key role in developing both conscious and
unconscious minds. How organizations respond to external
environment very much depends on its both environment. An organization
will be successful if the both minds in harmony; otherwise it can
develop neurotic behavior which will lead to development of organization
psychosis. The development of psychosis means that it has little
chance of survival. See symptoms of
declining organization. |
