Synopsis

This book examines the relationship between a company's administrative structure and its strategy, tracing the evolution of organizational structures in response to product diversification and geographical expansion. The author presents a new representation of organizational structure, the policy structure diagram, to supplement the organizational chart, and uses a case study to compare and contrast the two representations. The author shows how the policy structure representation provides unique insights into the processes and procedures that influence the execution of strategic moves, particularly when designing an organizational structure for a company following a strategy of product diversification. The book's insights provide practical guidance for executives and process consultants involved in implementing an organization's strategic vision.
