Teleological Dynamics of Organizational Performance: From Process to Practice and Performance

Workforce education forms one of the core aspects of organizational learning which aims for performance as well as efficiency. Learning is goal oriented in business organizations. Organizations activities are highly oriented towards customer satisfaction. Organizations learn from practice and delivery of services to meet consumer needs and necessities. Perfection, efficiency and smart practices define today’s multinational organizational culture. But how multinational organizations achieve such perfections in their business operations? This paper addresses this issue by linking teleological aspects of learning and practice to performance, adoption of routines, and learning-induced adaptation in order to explain how they achieve “perfection” in practice and operations. The paper furthermore attempts to study a particular aspect of organizational (teleological perfectionism) process by modeling scenarios which define goal oriented organizational learning and adaptation, and underpins how such teleological processes effectively benefits organizations in the long run. Conclusions drawn up from an example being modeled in this paper suggests that the role of teleology, or teleological dynamics play significant role in shaping today’s organizations and help explain some (or high) degree of perfectionism in their operations.
