Design and analysis of robust and adaptive organizations

The objectives of this paper are to (i) define and classify the processes of strategy and structural adaptation in organizations in response to mission and environmental changes, (ii) apply our modified design methodology to construct robust, adaptive, and flexible (both robust and adaptive) organizations; and (iii) analyze the effects of mission parameters on their performance. We investigate the performance of organizations through dynamic metrics, which include a performance based congruence measure, as well as DM activity and task workload measures as functions of time
