Abstract: |
The following paper aims at describing
how path dependent hierarchical organizations are affected by
a changing environment. The results of the latest research in this field
(Petermann et al. 2012) analyzed path dependency of
norms and institutions in different kinds of hierarchical organizations and
the impact of leadership within this process. The results were produces for
stable environments only. Agent based simulation was applied as research
method. In order to examine how this process evolves when the organizational
environment in changing the model M1 (Petermann et
al. 2012) will be enhanced. The goal is to simulate the impact of external
influences to the norms emerging within the organization. The research
described is not yet completed so this paper characterizes first thoughts and
possible simulation approaches to tackle the problem at hand. |
