Effective Administration through Organizational Levels

Abstract

Levels of complexity are constituent elements in living systems. The organization as a complex living system comprises four levels – individual, face‐to‐face team, group‐divisional, and policy‐strategy. Applies one framework of organizational levels to the university context and shows how a focus on the successful completion of the tasks on each level provides a paradigm for effective administration.
