Purpose: The purpose of the paper is to present the concept of providing organizational structure with necessary stability and variability. Design/methodology/approach: The concept draws from the results of a case study on the Society of Jesus (Jesuits), an organization that dates back to the first half of the sixteenth century, whose leaders assure great adaptive capacity, as well as stability and identity at the same time. Findings: The article sheds light on combining stability and variability during the structuring of organizations and presents a new approach, which builds on the principles of continuity and simplicity. Originality/value: Unlike the well-known organization life cycle models, which consider the organizational structure as a relatively stable element, that is subject to significant transformations when progressing through the life cycle phases, the presented concept favors evolutionary development of structures based on dynamic focusing of continuity and simplicity. The simultaneous observance of both principles has not yet been presented in the literature.

Teaching young people the art of discussion and performing in public was the key element in the Jesuit school programme called Ratio Studiorum. The importance of training the art of delivering speeches had its reflection in shaping architecture of Jesuit college buildings. The intention to provide proper space which will allow for delivering theatrical performances and other public acts was clearly visible in applied urban solutions and shaping nearby surrounding of the church and the college building. Church interiors, town squares, college courtyards and school auditoriums were basic places where students delivered so called public acts. Consequently forming and placing auditoriums within the school building had a significant influence on its form and internal functional solutions.
