| Abstract | The essential character of an organization depends upon the tapestry of the social relationships occurring within it. This paper seeks is to distinguish the organizational traits that follow the organizational dominance of a socially foreordained web of interpersonal obligation that are brought to the workplace. Illustratively, when these social relationship obligations are informed by Confucianism they delineate the archetypal Confucian organization. Such an organization can be characterized as being benevolently authoritarian, with a rich, varied, intricately interwoven human mosaic. This is because it is people-centered and didactic, accepting and accommodating the moral requirements of a socially sanctioned and reinforced overlay of inclusive, comprehensive, and subtle social obligation that must be fulfilled in the workplace, as elsewhere. The focus of management, which draws upon the power of relationship traditions and customs, is to pursue organizational goals and interests by managing interpersonal relationships and the relationship of relationships, in order to avoid interpersonal conflict and to gain subordinate commitment and compliance. |
