Organizations as Rational Systems
I. Introducing Rationality
(1) The machine analogy
– essential parts which are well designed into a functional
whole
(2) Technical or functional rationality
– the extent to which a series of actions are organized in
such a way to lead to predetermined goals with
maximum efficiency

Organizations as Rational Systems
II. Defining Characteristics
(1) Rational Calculation
– information, efficiency, optimization, design,
implementation
(2) Cognitive Limitation
– constraints, authority, rules, performance programs,
and coordination (bounded rationality)

(3) Goal Specificity
– providing unambiguous criteria for selecting among
alternative activities
– General Goals vs. Specific goals

(4) Formalization of Rules and Roles
– The rules are precisely formulated, and roles are
prescribed independently of the personal attributes and
relations of individuals occupying positions in the
structure.
– Formalization involves organizational controls over
individuals.

(4) Formalization of Rules and Roles
• The Benefits of formalizations
a. Formalization increases predictability and accountability.
b. Formalization reduces status battles or interpersonal
tensions.
c. Formalization objectifies the structure by making the roles
and relations objective and external to participants.

(4) Formalization of Rules and Roles
• The Benefits of formalizations
d. Formalization constitutes a functional alternative to the
sociometric structure – the patterning of affective ties
among participants.
e. Formalization produces routinized and regularized
structures independent of the participant of any particular
individual.

Organizations as Rational Systems
III. Four Schools
(1) Taylor’s Scientific Management
• Analyze jobs very carefully into their smallest aspects, and
examine closely the capabilities of the workers, and then fit
the two together to achieve the greatest economy
(efficiency).
• Scientifically designed work procedures allow workers to
work at peak efficiency.
• The assumptions of scientific management are:
a. Tasks are calculable.
b. Division of labor is efficient and productive.
c. There is one best way to do a thing

(2) Fayol’s Administrative Theory
• Coordination
– scalar principle
– unity-of-command principle
– span-of-control principle
– exception principle
• Specialization
– departmentalization principle
– line-staff principle

(4) Simon's theory of administrative behavior
• Economic Man vs. Administrative Man
• Organizations simplify participants' decisions and
activities.
• Organizations also support participants in the decision
they must make.
• bounded rationality: individuals can behave rationally,
because their alternatives and choices are limited.
