Chapter Chapter 7 in Organisational Adaptations, 2018, pp 127-138 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract A lot has been discussed about organisational adaptations in the preceding chapters. Each chapter has expounded new insight about adaptations in organisations. We did this primarily to further our scholarly understanding of organisational adaptations through the lens of pluralism. Our view and call for pluralistic perspective is to articulate a panoramic view of the organisation and its environment. We hope this perspective will lead to a broadened, elaborate, relevant and expanded insight into firm and its environment than what a single perspective offers. This is beneficial to practitioners and academia in the sense that sole reliance upon singular perspective or theory might lead to the application of strategies, business models and solutions that are too narrow on a practical level or too weak to effect the desired change (Frishammar, 2006). Adaptation being a complex firm concept necessitates a multi-paradigm perspective for good understanding of the problem and to be better positioned to offer the most appropriate solution.
