- Trade barriers – no equal playing field
Organizational behavior is an interdisciplinary science concerned with the
study of the behavior of organizations. As well as with the factors that
determine this behavior, and the manner in which organizations can be

management was a science that could and should be taught.
He distinguished six independent management areas:
1. Technical
2. Commercial
3. Financial
4. Self-protection
