Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it.
Organizations are institutions in which members compete for status and power. They compete for the resources of the organization, for example, finance to expand their own departments, for career advancement and for power to control the activities of others. In pursuit of these aims, groups are formed and sectional interests emerge. As a result, policy decisions may serve the ends of the political and career systems rather than those of the concern. In this way, the goals of the organization may be displaced in favour of sectional interests and individual ambition. These preoccupations sometimes prevent the emergence of organic systems.
Many of the electronics firms in their study had recently created research and development departments employing highly qualified and well-paid scientists and technicians.

Some felt that close co-operation with the experts in an organic system would reveal their ignorance and show that their experience was now redundant.
