This paper looks at the relevance of four perspectives on organisational and management thinking. It covers the classical, organic, symbolic interpretive and post-modern approaches. Having provided an overview of each theory, a view on its relevance in a global market place and knowledge economy is provided. The essay concludes that the post-modern approach, with its emphasis on development, interaction, and employee empowerment, applied in a cohesive, and structured way has brought together the most effective elements of the earlier theories from which it evolved and as such, it is the most pertinent and relevant in a global marketplace.
