As organizations grow, they often congratulate themselves on their progress, but they seldom ask, "What is the ideal size for an organization of our nature?"
When it comes to treating the most common ailments, hospitals may benefit by maintaining a smaller size. The staff may have greater camaraderie, and the patients may sense a more personal touch. I've personally noticed that and have often heard reports of that nature from patients.
Hardly academic in rigor, I know, but my guess is the studies bear that out.
At the very least, it is a question worth exploring. If your organization is growing, at which point does the growth become a negative?
