Summary/Abstract: Organization theory has been dominated by occidental paradigms with ‘Asian’ philosophies making minimal contribution.

These phases and realms are reframed and represented as a descriptive model of dysfunctional organizational typologies. This article is an initial step in merging oriental philosophy into organizational theory.
