Karl Marx and Herbert Spencer, buried near each other in Highgate Cemetery, had opposing ideologies. Spencer believed in individualism and social Darwinism, viewing society as an evolving organism. This text draws parallels between biological and organizational dynamics, highlighting how organizations, like living creatures, have DNA, require energy, and maintain boundaries. Organizational behavior, including inherited patterns and resistance to change, mirrors biological processes like evolution and immunity. The discussion delves into how these dynamics affect growth, innovation, and adaptation, emphasizing the importance of viewing organizational development through a biological lens to understand challenges and opportunities.
