Organisational Perspectives in Multinational Business

Chapter 13 in Membership of the Board of Directors, 1988, pp 268-289 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In every corporation, whether national or multinational, the number one goal of organisation and structure is to permit more efficient communications. Communications flow in two ways: top-down as orders and directives; botton-up as information which will permit successive management layers to make documented and factual decisions. Both sides of the information flow must be fast, accurate, and unobstructed. Computers and communications can play a key role in this regard, but they will not substitute for rusty or poor management. Throwing money at the problem is no way to a solution.
