Business is becoming more global, more competitive, and more
knowledge-intensive. Consequently, business executives are being
required to reexamine and redefine fundamental relationships - both
intra- and inter-company. The Dynamic American Firm explores the
pivotal factors motivating the organizational changes that are
sweeping American business, with a particular emphasis on the
global marketplace. It provides a critical analysis of the forces
that are shaping strategies and structures of American business,
emphasizing that the process of adaption is more important than
particular strategies and structures that develop along the way.
The authors begin by illustrating the external factors that shape
the development of the firm, including a combination of
technological advances and increasingly global markets, and proceed
to discuss corporate efforts to adapt to this external environment
by means of changing relationships with other firms. They pay
particular attention to the alliances that help American firms
establish a presence in overseas markets, including the roles of
mergers, acquisitions, strategic alliances, and joint ventures. The
book concludes with a discussion of the internal changes taking
place in American firms, including shifts in organizational
strategy and structure, the elimination of middle management, and
the development of work teams.
