Document Content and Description Below

Organizations have varying structures on which they run. Organization leaders structure their businesses in such a way that they run effectively so that they can produce maximum satisfaction to custom ... ers. In return, when customers are fully satisfied then the business can make profits and progress effectively. There are some theorists who have formulated methods to try and create a working environment that is very effective for businesses. Such theorists include Kolb who formulated a method of learning. Kolb’s theory can be used by businesses to train their employees on new methods of production or service delivery in a fast and effective manner., The theory depicts the four stages of learning that are common to everybody. Another theorist who has made major contributions to the Business world is Mintzberg. This theory described the various types of business structures. In doing this, he also detailed the relationships and the operations of the business structures. As such, businesses can apply the various structures and see which one best works for them while also assessing those structures that cannot work. Through Forrester and Drexler’s article, we can see some ways teams can be used to enhance organizational performance. The two discuss the best environment for teams to survive while also detailing how we can best use teams in an organization. The three authors have effectively brought out organizations as systems which can only survive through the appreciation of personal abilities to try and build each other (Kolb 43). Another aspect brought out by the three theorists is that businesses can only grow if they continuously endow their employees with relevant skills in the job market. Kolb’s learning cycle details a systematic method of learning. Through this method, one can learn both intellectual and physical skills. The whole process involves just a total of four steps. Kolb argues that it is possible for one to learn even from the simplest of experiences in life. This means that one does not need to be in a classroom to learn.
