THE SYSTEMS CONCEPT-2

A system can be biological (human body), physical (machine) or social (commercial organizations, voluntary bodies, etc.). Social systems re man-made systems and the relationships of the sub-systems is the most critical element. Further, since social systems involve human beings, their beliefs, values, attitudes and perceptions have an important bearing on the working of the system. This aspect is dealt with in the section on motivating and leading. 

A system can be closed or open. A closed system is self-sufficient and self-regulatory and has no interaction with the environment in which it exists. The feedback from the output triggers off a control mechanism which then regulated the input to bring back the output to the desired level. 

An open system is one which interacts with the environment in which it exists. All living, biological and social systems are examples of open systems. An organization is an open system and its sub-systems are its various divisions and departments. But at the same time, it is a sub-system of the environmental system within which it operates. The environment itself consists of social, economic, political and legal sub-systems.
