| Abstract: | Organizational regimes of high technology firms need to accommodate a range of seemingly-paradoxical imperatives: creativity vis-a-vis discipline, and flexibility vis-a-vis cohesion, each requiring a different structural emphasis. Bi-modal organizational forms emerge, defined as structures which are simultaneously centralized or decentralized. Described are the structural configurations of high technology firms at various stages of development, and examined organizational mechanisms deployed to achieve bi-modality. |
