resources (e.g. air traffic controllers);• create the rules based on which the access to the

resources is regulated.

• Organizations that operate in a volatile and

unstable environment more often adapt an

organic-adaptive strategic management style

(they dynamically adjust to changes)

• organizations that function in a relatively

stable environment, where changes occur

slowly, rather adapt a mechanistic model(formalized, bureaucratic, centralized).
