Abstract

In this dynamic and complex environment as introduced in Chapter 1.1, the essence of an organization as being to coordinate people’s activities and to connect these activities to a meaningful whole is challenged, as although the fast-evolving environment requires fast coordination, it nonetheless still requires efficiency within the company as well (Kieser & Ebers, 2006). This also entails the constant monitoring of the environment, and a constant questioning of how to address requests resulting from environmental changes.
