Identity and resources
Article Abstract:
There is a tendency for management to narrow itself to financial concerns and closed models due to a dependency on external resources and incongruency with purpose and identity. There is a particular sensitivity to this among volunteer and nonprofit organizations as they have non-rational goals. Pluralizations, internal secularizations, and rationalizations are some of the processes that help explain this.
