ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

John W. Meyer

John W. Meyer was a person who studied how things work in organizations like schools and hospitals. He looked at how people follow rules and how these rules affect the way things are done. Just like when you follow rules at school, like raising your hand before speaking, it makes the classroom run smoothly. He also talked about how organizations have different beliefs and values that guide what they do, just like how your family has certain beliefs and values that affect how you behave. Meyer's ideas help people better understand how organizations work and how they can improve.
