Description

This landmark study examines working groups and productive enterprises through an integrated socio-technical lens, moving beyond traditional approaches that treat technology and human factors separately. The book demonstrates how organisations can exercise genuine choice in structuring work around the same technological systems, revealing multiple viable modes of operation. Drawing on empirical research at the operational level, the work shows that technology does not determine a single organisational form, but rather creates a space within which different arrangements are possible. This exploration of socio-technical systems provides practical insights for managers and scholars seeking to understand how groups adapt and innovate under changing technological conditions. The research illustrates that organisational effectiveness depends on conscious design decisions about how people, processes and systems interact, rather than on technological imperatives alone.

Key Features

Develops a socio-technical systems approach that integrates human capabilities with technological change in organisational settings.

Demonstrates how alternative modes of work organisation can operate with identical technology, providing real choice for managers.

Examines working groups at the coal face level, grounding theory in practical operational reality and constraints.

Published by Routledge as part of the Routledge Library Editions: Organizations collection, ensuring academic credibility and accessibility.

Provides evidence-based insights into how organisations can structure work to align technology with human factors for improved performance.
