consumer, the company found that when consumers reach into the ice
chart, to pull out a beverage. They had no way of differentiating between a
coke and a competing soft drink.

the curved shape that skill remains today, the consumers would know
what they were grabbing as their hand was buried in ice.
The new Coca-Cola bottle made it effectively easier to “Grab the Coke”.

James A. Thompson was one of the first people to recognize the importance of
the organization’s environment.
Thompson suggested that the environment can be described along two
dimensions; its degree of change and its degree of homogeneity.
The degree of change is the extent to which the environment is relatively stable
or relatively dynamic.
The degree of homogeneity is the extent to which the environment is relatively
simple or relatively complex.
The degree of homogeneity and the degree of change combine to create
uncertainty for organizations, for example; a simple and stable environment
creates the least uncertainty and a complex and dynamic environment creates
the most uncertainty.

COMPETITIVE FORCES
The manager views the environment of their organization in term of fine
competitive forces; the threat of new entrants, competitive rivalry, the threat
of substitute products, the power of buyers and the power of suppliers.
The threat of new entrants is the extent to which new competitors can easily
enter a market or market segment.
Competitive rivalry is the nature of the competitive relationship between
dominant firms in the industry. Like Coke and Pepsi, Samsung and Nokia.
The threat of substitute product is the extent to which alternation products
or services may supplant or diminish the need for existing products or
services.
The power of buyers is the extent to which buyers of the product or services
in an industry the suppliers.
The consumers pressure can exert on businesses to get them to provide higher
quality products, better costumer services and lower prices.
The power of suppliers is the extent to which suppliers have the ability to
influence potential buyers.
The power of suppliers refers to the pressure suppliers can exert on
businesses by raising prices, lowering quality or reading availability of their
products.
ENVIRONMENTAL TURBULENCE
Although always subject to unexpected changes and upheavals, the fine
competitive forces can never the less be studied and assessed systematically,
and plans can be developed for dealing with them.
At the same time, through organizations face the possibility of the
environmental change no warning at all.
The most common form of organizational turbulence is a crisis of same sort.
Environmental turbulence refers to the amount of change and complexity.
Like terrorist attacks, work place violence.
Such crises affect organizations in different ways and same organization have
developed crises plans and terms.
HOW ORGANIZATION ADAPT TO THEIR ENVIRONMENT
Organizations attempt to adopt to their environment.
The most common methods are information management; strategic response;
merger, acquisitions and alliances; organization design flexibility direct
influence and social responsibility.

INFORMATION MANAGEMENT
One way organizations adapt to their environments is through information
management.
Information management is especially important when forming an initial
understanding of the environments and when monitoring the environment for
signs of change.
One technique for managing information is relying on boundary spanners.
Enterprise resource planning techniques are also useful methods for
improving information management.
STRATEGIC RESPONSE
Another way that an organization adopts to its environment is through a
strategic response.
If the market that a company currently serves is growing rapidly, the firm
might decide to invest even more heavily in product and services for that
market.
Likewise, if a market is shrinking or does not provide reasonable possibilities
for growth, the company may decide to jeh back.
MERGERS, ACQUISITIONS AND ALLIANCES
A related strategic approach that some organizations use to their
environments involves mergers, acquisition and alliances.
A merger occurs when two or more firms combine to form a new firm.
For example; as noted earlier delta merged with Northwest Airlines.
An acquisition occurs when one firm buys another, sometimes against its with
(usually called a “nestle take ones”). The firm taken ones may cease to exist
and becomes part of the other company.
For example; as part of its international expansion starbucles bought a British
coffee company.
An alliance, the firm undertakes a new venture with another firm. A company
engages in these kinds of strategies for a variety of reasons, such as easing
entry into new markets or expansating its presence in a current market.
ORGANIZATION DESIGN AND FLEXIBILITY
An organization may also adapt to environmental conditions by incorporating
flexibility in its structural design.
For example, a firm that operates in an environment with relatively low levels
of uncertainty might choose to use a design with many basic rules, regulation
and standard operating procedures.
Alternatively, a firm that faces a great deal of uncertainty might choose a
design with relatively few standard operating procedures, instead allowing
managers considerable discretion and flexibility with decisions.
The farmed type, sometimes called a “mechanistic organization design” is
characterized by formal and rigid rules and relationship.
The latter, sometimes called an “organic design” is considerably more flexible
and permits the organization to respond quickly to environment change.
DIRECT INFLUENCE
Organization are not necessarily helpless in the face of their environment.
Indeed, many organizations are able to directly influence their environments
in many different ways.
For example, firm can influence their suppliers by signing long-term contract
with fixed prices as a hedge against inflation.
Organizations also influence their customers by creating new uses for a
product, finding entirely new customers, taking customers away from
competitors and convincing customers that they need something new.
Organizations influence their regulators through robbing and bargaining.
THE ENVIRONMENT AND ORGANIZATIONAL EFFECTIVENESS
Effectiveness refers to the degree of congruence b/w organizational goals and
observed outcome.
MODELS OF ORGANZATIONAL EFFECTIVENESS
There are many different models of organizational effectiveness of
organizational effectiveness.
The system resource approach to organizational effectiveness focuses on the
extent to which the organization can acquire the resources it needs.
The internal processes approach deals with the internal mechanisms of the
organization and focuses on minimizing strain, integrating individuals and the
organization efficient operations.
The goals approach focuses on the degree to which an organization reaches
its goals. When a firm establishes by 10 percent and then achieves that
increase the goal approach maintains that the organization is effective.
Finally, the strategic constituencies approach focuses on the groups that have
a stake in the organization.
In this view, effectiveness is the extent to which the organization satisfies the
demands and expectations of all these groups.
Although there four basic models of effectiveness are not necessarily
contradictory, they do focus on different things.
The system resources approach focuses on inputs, the internal processes
approach focuses on transformation processes, the goal approach focuses on
outputs and the strategic constituencies approach focuses on feedback.
