Organisational Adaptations

Abstract

An extensive theoretical inquiry into existing body of knowledge applicable to organisational adaptations will provide a robust platform in broadening our understanding of the key issues in organisational adaptations. A pluralistic approach is adopted in the course of this inquiry. Adopting a pluralistic approach provides a unique opportunity of reviewing relevant organisational theories that help expand our scholarly understanding of this important organisational concept. This is very important because organisational adaptation being a multifaceted phenomenon demands a multisided approach to aid understanding.
