Answer to Question 1
Goal displacement is the adoption of new goals by an organization when the organization's original goals have been met or are no longer needed. By changing its purpose, the organization can continue to exist. In many cases, once the bureaucracy has become established, there are benefits to its continuation. These benefits include salaries for officers and directors, support services, and the accumulation of property and capital. To dissolve the bureaucracy means a loss in paid positions, company cars, personal expense accounts, and other benefits, as well as a discontinuation of fees paid to others for services. Examples of goal displacement: the March of Dimes' goal changed from finding a cure for polio to fighting birth defects after Jonas Salk discovered a cure for polio; NATO's purpose changed from protecting western Europe from Soviet invasion to acting as a rapid deployment force to combat terrorism.
