Cognitive distortion is influenced by the psychotic traits of an organization along a continuum of various states which include paranoia, obsessive-compulsive, dramatic, depressive, schizoid, and narcissistic tendencies. These tendencies may be of assistance in the early startup phases of a firm but overtime distort perceptions and behavior of the organization through the defensive mechanisms that develop. The psychotic continuum is a worthy paradigm through which to view organizational opportunity, strategy, operations, and decision making, potentially capable of assisting in diagnosing the causes of organization dysfunction. 2014-03-30T02:26:36Z 2014-03-30T02:26:36Z 2013 Article Contemporary Readings in Law and Social Justice, vol. 5(1), 2013, pages 44-57 1948-9137 http://www.addletonacademicpublishers.com/search-in-crlsj/1762-the-psychosis-of-organizations http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/33205 en Addleton Academic Publishers |
