The human resource function in organizations provides one of four perspectives in which to view human development in the workplace. In the framework conceived by Bolman and Deal (1991), this function gives rise to a perspective intersecting with three related but divergent perspectives the authors call structural, political, and symbolic. While the human resource perspective targets the creative potential and the needs of organization members, in a structural perspective organizations are seen as centered around a hierarchy or heterarchy of functions of power and control. By contrast, a political view sees organizational life as determined by coalitions competing for, and negotiating access to, scarce resources. Finally, the symbolic perspective regards organizational culture, a dimension in which values are created and shared that define an organization’s raison d’etre and mission (Schein, 1992). |
