| Abstract: | Top managers of British and French firms, which were recently acquired by either British or French firms, were surveyed as to their perceptions of the administrative approach -- reflected in integrating mechanisms -- used by the acquiring firms to establish headquarters-subsidiary control. Four types of integrative mecganisms were examined: structural, systems, social, and managerial. The findings provide insight into the administrative difficulties of managing across borders. |
