1. How do you feel about the prospect of becoming a manager and having to
manage a set of relationships with other companies rather than just managing
your own company? Discuss.
If I ever get the chance to be a manager, I'd love to manage bonds between two
separate sets of organizations. This would be a fantastic opportunity for me to expand
my knowledge of each organization's behaviors for how they work. Moreover, I would be
able to see long-term relationships and grip to promote fairness, equitable equity, and
profit for all parties concerned.
2. Explain how the process of variation, selection, and retention might explain
innovations that take place within an organization? Explain.
The term "variation" refers to an organization's upgrading and adding new lines in
response to a new trend, technology, or innovation.
The term "selection" refers to the process of choosing the best and worst employees for
a company.
The term "retention" refers to which services or goods must remain in the organization
in order for it to be profitable.
By setting an example, these concepts can be introduced into a company., Blockbuster
executives failed to take Netflix seriously, and new choices for renting movies were not
available until 2003. To keep up with the organization's innovation, variation is required.
Blockbuster, fell due to a lack of selection and a failure to keep up with market changes.
3. Do you believe that legitimacy really motivates a large, powerful organization such
as Wal-Mart? Is acceptance by other people a motivation for individuals as well?
Explain.
Yes, legitimacy motivates a large, strong corporation like Walmart, Costco and many
other big organizations. The reason for this is because such organizations have a
structured environment, they work with laws and regulations, and everyone is treated
equally. As a result, individuals who work in such companies are more driven, and they
work with greater passion, which helps companies increase productivity. Legitimacy, in
other words, is a sign of acceptability and appropriateness. Such successful
organizations are fortunately liked by customers and mostly they are satisfied the
services provided by them.
4. How do mimetic forces differ from normative forces? Give an example of each
Because of their vague goals, technology products, and services, “mimetic forces” can
be derived when any firm borrows or mimics the strategies and models of other
companies.
Benchmarking is an obvious example of official copying, albeit best practice procedures
can be enhanced when reproduced.
“Normative forces” imply that organizations are required to adapt in order to meet
professional standards and to embrace tactics deemed up-to-date and effective by the
professional community.
Examples could be, Accounting standards, HR standards, consultant training and many
more.
