Mechanistic model is synonymous with the bureaucracy in that it has extensive departmentalization, high formalization, a limited information network (mostly downward communication) and little participation by low-level members in decision making.While, organic model is flat, uses cross hierarchical and cross-functional teams, has low formalization, possesses a comprehensive information network (using lateral and upward communication as well as downward), and involves high parcitipation in decision-making.
They are designed for stable environments while organic structures are better suited for changing and innovative environments.
Why are mechanistic and organic structures suited to different organizational environments?
We don't have organic phones .
Mechanistic Organisation is like a machine, difficult to change. Bureaucratic & stable - (gov policy, technolgy, competition). Organisation seeks loyalty and obedience. Organic Organisation As a culture are living and responsive to change. Consultation & involvement in decisions.
There isn't a difference becaue there both the same.
