Question 1 / 45 |

DIRECTIONS: Read the passage and answer the question based on it.

Organisations are institutions in which members compete for status and power. They compete
for the resources of the organization. For example, finance to expand their own departments,
for career advancement and for power to control the activities of others. In pursuit of these
aims, groups are formed and sectional interests emerge. As a result, policy decisions may serve
the ends of the political and career systems rather than those of the concern. In this way, the
goals of the organisation may be displaced in favour of sectional interests and individual
ambition. These pre-occupations sometimes prevent the emergence of organic systems. Many of
the electronics firms in their study had recently created research and development departments
using highly qualified and well-paid scientists and technicians. Their high pay and expert
knowledge were sometimes seen as a threat to the established order of rank, power and
privilege. Many senior managers had little knowledge of the technicalities and possibilities of
new developments and electronics. Some felt that close cooperation with the experts in an
organic system would reveal their ignorance and show that their experience was now redundant.

Question -

“Organic system” as related to the organisation implies its

natural and unimpeded growth

growth with inputs from science and technology

growth with the help of expert knowledge

steady all-round development
