Summary: An effective organization is a living thing: An organization is its people. People breathe life and purpose and energy into an organization. An organization has a manner, spirit, tempo, nature, character. It has moods, joys, fears, and sorrows. But most important of all, an effective organization has a purpose that is shared by all its members and to which they willingly commit their efforts. People working together can do almost anything.
