Bureaucratic Control

Peter Wendorff

Chapter Chapter 6 in Politics in Software Development, 2022, pp 53-59 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Some form of control in organizations is necessary to ensure that subordinates do what their managers want, which cannot be taken for granted. In a bureaucracy, most of the necessary control occurs indirectly through rules and other elements of organizational structure. Work processes are highly standardized, and managers only intervene in exceptional circumstances. In this chapter, we look at how bureaucratic control works in software processes.
