The similarities and differences between postbureaucratic organization forms and new organization forms emerging after 2000

There is much hype surrounding new organization forms such as Holacracy or agile organizations. This thesis aimed to disclose that a variety of elements connotated with new organization forms have been around for many decades. By comparing postbureaucratic organization forms from 1961 to 1995 and new organization forms which emerged after the year 2000, I aimed to highlight the similarities and differences of these forms. I have developed a framework consisting of three categories, formal structure, informal structure, and organizational culture and through a theoretical and deductive methodological approach, the similarities, differences, and implications were presented.
