Tiivistelmä: | In this paper, the effect of organizational communication structure on performance is studied using a project selection framework in which heterogeneous, rational agents can reject or accept projects. A hierarchy performs better than a polyarchy in tough environments, whereas the reverse holds in friendly environments. Hierarchies can be too strict from a social welfare point of view. Indeed, if the value of profitable but rejected projects is taken into account, a single agent can perform better than a hierarchy. |
