Q: Answer-According to Open Systems Theory applied to Organization Development (OD), what is the term for the...

Entropy In general systems theory, closed systems inherently move toward entropya natural universal tendency toward disorder, decay, disorganization, and ultimate dissolution. Negative Entropy Negentropy Open systems such as organizations continuously interact with their external environment. By actively absorbing external inputs e.g., capital, skilled talent, raw materials, new technologies, market intelligence, open systems counteract entropic forces. This deliberate process of importing fresh energy and resources to revitalize the organization and avoid disintegration is called negative entropy or negentropy.

D , what is the term for the process through which an enterprise continuously imports fresh energy, information, and resources from its external environment to arrest decay, maintain stability, and prevent systemic decline or death?

A Positive Entropy Mechanism

B Negative Entropy Mechanism (Negentropy)

C Static Equilibrium Process
