Max Weber believed that a company that is a bureaucracy never achieves a competitive advantage because it is inefficient and is plagued with management problems. True or False

False

Explanation:

Max Weber's theory on bureaucracy was in favor of efficiency and rationality in the way of operations either of a governing system or a business organisation.

Bureaucracy is the structure of administration governing any particular large organisation either a public/government organisation (ministry) or a private organisation (companies and firms). Bureaucracy as far as a company is concerned is the hierarchy structure that oversees the affairs of the business.

Hence, Max Weber speaks in favour of the fact that bureaucracy brings efficiency and rationality in how organisational activities are conducted and that the introduction of hierarchical structures reinforces this rationality as well as the maximization of efficiency as well as order in an organisation.
