			                  	Is a Hospital a Mechanistic or an Organic Organization Form?

													Sounds like you are attending the course organization sciences.. I am too. Did you find the answer? I was thinking the organization would be a typical mechanistic form.

													@Cornelissen: Yes I found the answer and I agree that it is a mechanic type if we go to the Minzberg`s classification of the organization, we also see that a hospital has many layers of of hierarchy and bureaucracy.

													A hospital can indeed be pictured as a mechanistic form of an organization in terms of Burns & Stalker's typology. The nature of the tasks performed and the way they are distributed clearly puts them in this class. Thanks.
