This paper is intended to heighten the reader's awareness of biological analogies as heuristic aids to managers by explicit illustration of the negative and positive consequences of organisational ageing and to suggest strategies for counterbalancing the negative forces operating in ageing organisations as one strives to increase organisational productivity. - Reproduced  aManagers  aOrganizations  aJadoon, Zafar Iqbal  aSouth Asian Journal of Management  a45575  c45575d45575  00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 6, Issue no: 2pAR45998r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
