ABSTRACT: This study explores the legal implications of organisational theory, focusing on how different theoretical models inform management practices and compliance strategies. By utilising a systematic overview, the research analyses the application of various theories to enhance legal compliance and organisational governance. Key findings reveal that theories such as complexity, chaos, autopoietic, dialectical change, integral, and metaphorical analysis offer valuable insights for developing adaptive, flexible, and context-specific legal frameworks. These frameworks are crucial for managing unpredictability, fostering internal compliance systems, resolving organisational conflicts, and promoting holistic legal approaches. The study concludes with recommendations for aligning organisational theory with legal frameworks to support sustainable and compliant business environments, while also highlighting areas for future research, including industry-specific applications and the impact of emerging legal trends on compliance practices.
