CONTINGENCY THEORY

Contingency theory means an approach or an appropriate action developed considering the

external environment and internal need. In short contingency theory talks about how and

what should be the course of action in response to the events in the environment. LexisNexis

used a contingency approach as at the beginning of 1970 they started using the technology to

provide data and information to lawyers on their desks removing the barrier of a librarian. It

was an approach to running in a changing environment. There isn’t any universal principle of
 management or any best way of performing things. Activity done by the manager depends on

the circumstances and environment. The contingent theory provides a suitable alternative

approach for the actions which are contingent on the external and internal environment. As

my firm analyzes the suitable and appropriate action in the use of technology in the field

providing customers with legal documents, journals, and research papers which was which

took a strong strategy formulation, ambitious and courageous decision making, diplomatic

leadership effective organizational improvement, and focused design of organisation

structure.
