Title: Consideraciones sobre la formalización del comportamiento organizacional Abstract: This essay analyzes the formalization of organizational behavior. This analysis is made from the point of view of different perspectives that can explain the process within the framework of the organizational structure. The formalization, linked to the implementation of predefined processes that seek to limit the discretion of operators, favours the generation of standardized outcomes. Many times misinterpreted as an excess of bureaucracy, the formalization has not given everything yet, so it is interesting to review the concept profoundly, noting its numerous aspects and dominating them in organizational settings, in order to achieve the best of its purpose and its raison d’être. Classification-JEL: M00 Keywords: formalization, standardization, structural design.
