29. Contingency Theory • States that there is no “one best way” to manage an organization. • Because what works for one organization may not work for another • Situational characteristics (contingencies) differ • Managers need to understand the key contingencies that determine the most effective management practices in a given situation

30. The Learning Organization • The management approach based on an organization anticipating change faster than its counterparts to have an advantage in the market over its competitors. • Rather than reacting to change , which is a normal part of the business landscape, organizations need to anticipate change so they are well positioned to satisfy customer needs.

31. Emerging Perspectives and Issues The Modular Organization • Every function not regarded as crucial is outsourced to an independent organization. • “Disaggregated Corporation” The Intangible Organization • Shifts from tangible (plant and equipment) to intangible (know-how and product design) investments • Mangers and employees in today’s companies focus on opportunities rather than efficiencies
