'Organization is not simply a group of people at a given place.' What do you infer from this statement?

This statement implies that an organization cannot simply
be made up of a random group of people.  If that is so, then we must ask what
does make an organization.  The first inference I draw from
this statement, then, is that an organization must have a purpose.  The organization
must exist to serve some purpose that is important to its
members.


A second thing that can be inferred from this
statement is that an organzation does not need to be limited to a particular physical
place.  An organization can be any group of people who are associated with one another
for a given purpose.  In other words, having a common purpose is much more important
than being in a common place.


So this statement implies
that organizations must have purposes and that they need not be made up of people who
are in the same physical place.
