Burke-Litwin Model shows the Complexity of Organizations

The Burke-Litwin model shows the characteristics of a complex system. According to complexity theory, complex systems are non-linear, dynamic, adaptive and sensitive to initial conditions.
So human organizations as complex systems do not respond easily to command-control mechanisms. They are not predictable.
That's the challenge of leaders wanting to accomplish changes in the organization.
