مجموعه آثار کریس آرجریس نمایانگر آن است که وی همانند مزلو و مک گریگور بر این باور بود که انسان یک کل منسجم و نظام یافته است. آرجریس در کتاب خود تحت عنوان “شخصیت و سازمان”، ضمن مقایسه فعالیتهای مدیریتی در سازمانهای سلسله مراتبی و سنتی، با نیازها و تواناییهای افراد بالغ، چنین نتیجه گیری می کند که برخی از اقدامها و فعالیتهایی که بویژه تحت تأثیر رهیافتهای سنتی مدیریت انجام می پذیرند، با شخصیت افراد بالغ ناسازگارند.
Chris(topher) Argyris Biography
Psychologist and sociologist, born in Newark, New Jersey, USA. He taught at Yale (1951–71) and the Harvard graduate schools of education and business administration (1971), and conducted private consultancies with government organizations. Bringing social science techniques to organizational theory, he specialized in human relations, executive development, and organizational behaviour and development. One of his important books was Overcoming Organizational Defenses (1990).
