How to Implement Management by Systems Based on a New Systems Theory

Since the system concept was proposed, there has been a constant interest in applying it to the study of organizational management. There have been several attempts to study and understand Organizations as if they were systems and obtain from this interpretation approaches and methods to build business management theories. None of these previous attempts has managed to mark a significant change in the way companies are managed, they have contributed some analysis approaches with certain benefits on the interpretation of management, but none has been adopted as a new paradigm. Interesting topics have resulted but have not generated transcendental changes. This has been the case, because the theoretical framework of the General Systems Theory is too simplistic and not very strict and allows making unscientific assumptions and interpretations that led to dissertations with little practical criteria, although with clear logical grounds. In order to propose a truly systemic and practical management model, this paper proposes a theoretical framework for Organizational management, based on a slightly stricter and more practical systems theory: The Specific Systems Theory, based on its fundamental postulates, it was possible to accurately describe the systems that make an Organization work, how they interrelate and how they should be managed in order to achieve the ultimate goal of an Organization, to obtain the results that form its raison d'être.

Abstract

Since the system concept was proposed, there has been a constant interest in applying it to the study of organizational management. There have been several attempts to study and understand Organizations as if they were systems and obtain from this interpretation approaches and methods to build business management theories. None of these previous attempts has managed to mark a significant change in the way companies are managed, they have contributed some analysis approaches with certain benefits on the interpretation of management, but none has been adopted as a new paradigm. Interesting topics have resulted but have not generated transcendental changes. This has been the case, because the theoretical framework of the General Systems Theory is too simplistic and not very strict and allows making unscientific assumptions and interpretations that led to dissertations with little practical criteria, although with clear logical grounds. In order to propose a truly systemic and practical management model, this paper proposes a theoretical framework for Organizational management, based on a slightly stricter and more practical systems theory: The Specific Systems Theory, based on its fundamental postulates, it was possible to accurately describe the systems that make an Organization work, how they interrelate and how they should be managed in order to achieve the ultimate goal of an Organization, to obtain the results that form its raison d'être.
