Pakistan Railway, one of the largest institutions of Pakistan is providing the transportation services all over the country. But with the passage of time it has lost its credibility and is now at the verge of closure or dismemberment.

Greiner Model of organizational evolution & revolution proposed following dimensions of organizational development that is; age of organization, size of organization, stages of evolution, and stages of revolution.

In your opinion, which dimension of Greiner Model was ignored by Pakistan Railway that hindered its development? Justify your choice within two lines.

Solution :

Stage of revolution is ignored by Pakistan Railway.

Turbulent times leading to severe upheaval of management practices – means revolution or period of revolution.

Many organisations fail during such a crisis – unable to abandon past practices have to wind-up or compromise to lower levels of growth.

The critical task for management in each revolutionary period is to find a new set of organisation.

Interestingly, the new practices sow their own seeds of decay and lead to another revolution. Therefore management sees something a solution in one time period becomes a major problem later.
