This book details the evolution of organizations from the 1840s to now, using examples of companies like the British East India Company, the Hudson's Bay Company, and the East India Company. The author's theory is that all organizations go through four evolutionary stages: entrepreneurial, bureaucracy, professionalism, and decline. The author presents his theory by way of case studies and his analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of each of the four stages. The book goes beyond mere history to include practical managerial advice and emphasize how the evolutionary stage of an organization can affect its strategy, structure, staffing, and control systems.
