Management Observation and Communication Theory by Heikki Heiskanen, G A Swanson (Hardcover, 1992)

About this product

Product Information

The same fundamental logic underlies language and mathematics, and indeed computerized information processing. Based on the three well-developed academic theories of linguistic-mathematical logic, living systems, and hierarchy, this book aims to provide a framework of fundamental logic to help management teams develop customized integrative management theories for their own organizations. Because of the ever increasing complexity of modern societies and organizations, the information that informs and controls organizations cannot always be casually collected and used. Management observation and communication theory provides a way for management teams to document and formally connect the interaction of people, machines, information and other matter-energy forms and processes to multiple levels of abstracted ideas comprising purposes and goals. The book begins with a general discussion of living systems theory and linguistic-mathematical theory. From this base, Heiskanen and Swanson discuss a series of applications that examine typical communications in organizations to discover the state of an organization observed by the communicators. They provide more than 80 figures and tables illustrating the applications. The discussion progresses through methods of constructing and using information backdrops for analysis of communications to methods of combining the results of analyses. Methods of syntactical analysis and of semantical analysis are surveyed. This book may be an important tool for management teams concerned with improving the information flows and decision processes of organizations as well as students and professionals concerned with management.
