- Summary:
-
In "modern organizational theory" communication is the focal point for the application of systems analysis to the functioning of an organization. "Systems" have been defined as interacting elements. If the elements interacting are entirely internal, the system is closed; while if the interaction is among internal and external elements, the system is open. Since scholars investigate the behaviors--and their consequences--of the communicative processes within an organization, the use of the open systems approach for this investigation permits more accurate examination of the information diffusion which coordinates, controls, and evaluates the activities of persons within an organization.
