Just note that any organization is quite complex, and surely at different times different people in an organization have different purposes, and they may have different understandings if they share the same purposes. So it is pretty common that everybody's actions, understanding, and purposes are not coordinated.

The purpose of an organization is never simple. From Hebert Simon's <Administrative Behavior>:

> The survival and success of organizations depend on their providing sufficient incentives to their members to secure the contributions that are needed to carry out the organizations' tasks
