This piece looks at the four schools of thought in applying organizational theory. It explains the underlying philosophy and the difference between them. Classical is described as the beginning of all theories and the foundation on which others have been built. Symbolic interpretivist considers context and subjectivity as most important while modernists consider objectivity and scientific finding the most crucial. Post modernists believe in not following any one philosophy but being open and looking at all. The essay emphasizes the importance of understanding these paradigms to assist in all functions across an organization such as marketing, operations and most importantly HR.

 

KEYWORDS: Paradigms, Philosophy, Organisation theory, classical, modern, symbolic interpretivist, post-modern, HR, management!,
