The
The Systems
Systems Perspective
Perspective
A systems perspective offers important insights into the
working of an organization.
A system is a set of interrelated and interdependent parts
arranged in a manner that produces a unified whole.
An organization has divisions, departments and like units
separated out to perform specialized activities. At the
same time, in order to maintain unity among the
differentiated parts and form a complete whole, every
energy system has a reciprocal process of integration.
It is achieved through devices such as coordinated levels
of hierarchy; supervision, rules, procedures & policies.

of Systems
Systems
Closed system. It would be the one that
receives no, enclosed, and sealed off from the
outside world. energy from an outside source
and from which no energy is released to its
surroundings. A closed system would not
depend on its environment; it would be
autonomous.
Open System. An open system interacts with and
adapts to the environment by consuming resources
and exporting product and services to it. Because of
its interdependence with various elements issues
involved are more complex in nature.
