Our first special guest, Dr Katharina Dittrich explains what organizational routines are, where they came from and why and talks about how the readings she helped us pick for Episode 4 - Behavioral Theory of the Firm (1963) by Cyert and March, and Organization (1958) by March and Simon - relate to one another. To learn more about Episode 4 and why (as well as how) it is different, check out Carnegie Mellon School Series: An Introduction from last week!
