Description and Table of Contents
Description
This book argues that for many companies organisation is designed to achieve operational optimization and may be in conflict with strategic objectives. Managers may not share similar decision criteria and this may facilitate or hinder the fulfilment of certain strategies. The role of top managers is to shape to a large extent the ability of the organisational system to implement and achieve strategic objectives. This book provides breakthrough thinking on these issues by two leading academic thinkers.
