Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Max Weber argued that rational social organization leads to large-scale organizations where people are expected to possess technical competence and self-discipline is highly valued. However, he did not suggest that personal relationships are a defining feature of such organizations. In fact, he argued that bureaucracies rely on impersonal rules and procedures rather than personal ties to ensure efficiency and predictability.
