isomorphicIsomorphism
is a term associated with institutional theory that seeks to explain the
tendency for organisations to conform to ideal types. Mimetic isomorphism
occurs when organisations imitate the practices of other organisations that they perceive to be successful, particularly in climates of uncertainty. Normative isomorphism arises as a consequence of mimetic isomorphism, as these
convergent patterns become increasingly normalised and prescribed. | |
