摘要:Organizations are fully dependent on their environment,namely they depend on: resources,consumers,governmental acts,legislation,concurrent organizations,societal value system,technique,technologies,social conceptions,etc. The situational factors from the internal and the external environment strongly influence the firm’s organizational structure. Among them,an important place is held by the organizational dimension and life cycle phase. Any organization appears,develops,becomes successful and then follows its decline. But no organization can survive without undergoing such changes as are required by the environment where it functions. Consequently the organizational structure has to be flexible.
