Edited by Robert B. Huizinga, Debra J. Dean

Description

This edited volume expands on Morgan's organizational metaphors through the lens of faith to illuminate organizational function.

Part I uses metaphor to illustrate dysfunctional organizations, including the impact of dysfunction upon organizational trust, performance, and longevity.

Part II examines the progression from a dysfunctional organization to one that exhibits functionality.

Finally, the last section discusses healthy organizations.

Metaphors used in this book include Pygmalion organizations, organizational zombies, and organizations as vineyards.

This book offers new metaphors that can be applied in organizational theory.
