| Tiivistelmä: | The links between executive personality and the strategic and organizational orientations of troubled firms are examined. Original typologies of neurotic styles and corporate pathology are used, but the two are related using concept of organizational culture which provides a useful vehicle for linking personality with strategy. It is argued that the personality of the top executive could influence strategy not only in centralized firms but through culture this can happen even in decentralized organizations. Several sets of hypotheses are generated to formalize this position. |
