Not sure if this is really what you're looking for, but:
>Complex Organisations - Perrow
>From Max Weber (Chapters VI - X) - Weber
>'Institutionalized Organization' - Meyer
>'The Iron Cage Revisited' - DiMaggio & Powell
>'A Garbage Can Model of Organisational Choice' - Cohen, March, & Olsen
>'The Science of “Muddling Through”' - Lindbolm
>The External Control of Organisations - Pfeffer & Salancik
>'The Nature of the Firm' - Coase
>'Theory of the Firm' - Jensen & Heckling
>'The New Economics of Organisation' - Moe
>'Markets, Bureaucracies, and Clans' - Ouchi
>Exit, Voice, and Loyalty - Hirschman
>Street Level Bureaucracy - Lipsky
Start with Perrow because it is basically a survey of the development of organisational theory. I think 'The Logic of Collective' by Olson and 'The Calculus of Consent' by Buchanan would also be a good supplements because their main theses can be quite usefully abstracted for thinking about organisational forms and decision making. Also 'The Origins of Political Order' by Fukuyama is nice, light reading about a lot of historical forms of organisation (focused on political organisation obviously).

This will NEVER be you buttershit.
Ryuko and Satauki are 2D perfection, if they were real I would let them beat me up in a femdom-flavored threesome. If I ever so your 3DPD, fat, 50+ year old tranny ass the only thing I’d like to do is give you the beating you richly deserve.
