| Abstract: | This article examines how organizational adoption of three different types of change: change in products, in technological and administrative processes, is affected by environmental factors. A sample of bank holding companies were investigated in the USA in 1975-1995. It was found that environmental factors affect rates of change in products, in technological processes and in administrative processes differently. It was also found that changes in products are followed by changes in both technological and administrative processes and that the three types of change indicate momentum, as companies more probably implement changes alike to those they have recently executed. |
