N2  - Explores the strengths and limitations of 8 metaphors which have been used to portray a broad range of perspectives on the nature and functioning of organizations.  Identifies the metaphors as follows: organizations as - machines; organisms; brains; cultures; political systems; psychic prisons; flux and transformation; and, instruments of domination.  Points out that each metaphor provides limited insight,  and challenges managers to find appropriate ways of seeing, understanding, and shaping their workplace situations
