Abstract

The one person organization has been neglected in much of organizational research. This has occurred despite the one person organization's ubiquity and importance to organizational theory and the workforce. Prior admonishments about the uniqueness of such firms have gone largely unheeded, and suggestions to the owners of one person organizations have often been misguided. The paper goes on to show how this modal organization fits into the open-systems framework and where the one person organization offers unique opportunities for important research in the areas of individual-work and individual-organization relationships, organizational founding research, and occupational choice research for marginal members of society.
