Organizational Growth and Change: The Life Cycle of a Community Mental Health Center.

Messal, Judith L.

Administration in Mental Health, v8 n1 p12-22 Fall 1980

Organizations go through life cycles that affect their behavior. Growth models often relate to leadership. In a study of one mental health center's development, growth is related to funding. If funding remains diversified and productivity is kept high, growth of a mature organization remains manageable. (JAC)
