In this course we will consider decision making within organizations. First we'll focus on the structure of organizations. Why do organizations differ from each other?

For this part we will use the book 'Structure in Fives' by Henry Mintzberg. He describes five different types of organizations and the way they function within their environment. We will take a brief look on strategy processes in organizations. What is strategy? Who is involved in formulating strategies in different organization types?

Management makes use of these relations in several ways. Understanding the difficulties that surround the processes of decision-making, particularly in organizational networks.
