Definición

  • Almost half a century after systems theorist Ludwig von Bertalanffy initiated the publication of the General Systems series, formally bringing the biologybased open systems perspective to organization studies and, by extension, to leadership studies, the majority of academic studies of leadership still fail to give adequate consideration to the dynamic aspects of organizations. The reasons for this failure are many and have been repeatedly documented: lack of accepted methodologies for temporal studies (i.e., those that occur across time), the demands of the academic tenure system, researcher familiarity with cross-sectional research methods (i.e, traditional statistical correlation), shortages of research funding, difficulties in conceptualization, lack of sympathy on the part of editors and reviewers, and numerous others.
