ORGANIZATION DESIGN AND THE LIFE‐CYCLES OF PRODUCTS [1]

Lex Donaldson

Journal of Management Studies, 1985, vol. 22, issue 1, 25-37

Abstract: This paper presents a model which elaborates the relationship between organization design and the product life‐cycle. Consideration is given to the structural implications of corporations which have multiple products at differing phases in their life‐cycles. This involves a theoretical synthesis of work on P.L.C. with that on degree of product diversification.
