organizations. According to Gibson 2004: 6, an organization is a coordinated unit consisting of at least two people who function to achieve a common goal or a
set of goals. Gibson also writes that organizations are entities that enable society to pursue accomplishments that can not be achieved by individuals acting alone.
According to Hersey 1996: 364, organization is a group that has stated and formal goals. Organizations exist for various reasons and have different
organizational goals. Organizational goals are targets toward which input, process, and output are directed; for example, make a 10 percent return on investment, help
conquer hunger, or increase sales 20 percent during the current fiscal year. Hersey 1996: 365 also says that organization is two or more individuals who have stated
and formal goals.
