The first is objects E the parts! elements! or variables within the system. These may be physical or abstract or both! depending on the nature of the system. 0econd! a system consists of attributes E the 1ualities or properties of the system and its objects. Third! a system has internal relationships among its objects. ?ourth! systems exist in an environment. < system! then! is a set of things that affect one another within an environment and form a larger pattern that is different from any of the parts. The fundamental systems*interactive paradigm of organizational analysis features the continual stages of input! throughput &processing' and output! which demonstrate the openness8closed*ness of a system. < closed system does not interact with its environment. %t does not take in information and therefore is like to atrophy! that is degenerate. <n open system receives information! which it uses to interact dynamically with its environment. ;penness increases its likelihood to survive and prosper. (uch of systems theory resembles the scientific methodB hypothesize! design a controlled experiment! collect data and analyze data. The purpose is to maintain the use of science in management to obtain real time# results that can be used instantaneously to affect control in the organization &some have even accused systems theory of being science in management# rather than a science of management#'.
