Chapter Chapter 4 in Chester I. Barnard: Innovator of Organization Theory, 2023, pp 49-64 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter aims to clarify what intellectual exchange Barnard accumulated with researchers. It also examines how Barnard’s theory of organization and management was influenced by such intellectual exchange. Barnard built his own intellectual exchange network with well-known social scientists and philosophers such as L. J. Henderson, H. A. Simon, M. Polanyi, T. Persons, G. Homans, R. K. Merton, E. Jaques, and so on. This chapter focuses on intellectual exchange with Henderson, Simon, Polanyi, and Jaques because these intellectual exchanges are considered to be closely related to creating and developing Barnard’s theory of organization and management. It then clarifies what interest Barnard and these researchers shared and how they exchanged their views mainly by examining their correspondence.
