In organizational development (OD), the concept of requisite organization was developed by Elliott Jaques.
Somewhat controversial since some of his conclusions about organizations run counter to the predominant values of OD, Jaques was interested in what makes some organizations highly effective, while others fail to function and produce.
Some of the key elements in his theory of organizations
- hierarchy to delineate authority and accountability
- levels of management pegged to task complexity
