摘要:The paper discuses the role of the Organized Anarchy paradigm and the Garbage Can Model in strategic decision-making, and extends the idea of Organized Anarchy to the Informed Anarchy with unclear technology of allocation and dissemination of information, incomplete understanding of information, and fluid participation of information in decision processes. An example of the computer simulation is briefly presented, but the discussion in this paper is limited to the relation between the level of organization anarchy, load of problems, formal and informal information systems, and efficiency of decision-making. The models suggest that managers could enrich their decision-making by making their organization function like a net in which they catch "ingredients" needed for strategic planning and efficient decision-makings. Such nets are intelligently employed and motivated members of the organization
