How does open-system theory interact with the environment?

What will be an ideal response?

Supporters of the open-system theory see an organization as something akin to a biological organism like a plant or an animal living in the environment. An organization is a system that receives inputs of resources (equipment, supplies, the energies of employees), which it throughputs and transforms to yield outputs (products or services). Such a system also operates a feedback loop. Some feedback can be negative and can help flag problems that must be corrected, and some feedback can be positive and can help identify things that work well. This information can adjust the inputs and the system so that it produces better outputs at a lower cost.
