Organizational autonomy in public science and technology non - business units in Vietnam.

Abstract

Organizational autonomy is a state that demonstrates an organization’s ability to make decisions on its own. Organizational autonomy is explored in many different aspects and contents. In the scope of this article, the author mentions organizational autonomy through the following contents: management autonomy, policy autonomy, structural autonomy, and financial autonomy. By doing quantitative research with 137 questionnaires to leaders, managers, and employees working in public science and technology non - business units, the article aims to clarify the assessment of reality status and degree of autonomy of public science and technology non - business units, thereby giving several recommendations to contribute to improving the autonomy of these units in Vietnam.
