| Tiivistelmä: | Percy Barnevik, president and CEO of ABB Asea Brown Boveri, is moving more aggressively than any CEO in Europe, to build the new model of competitive enterprise: an organization that combines global scale and world-class technology with deep roots in local markets. Headquartered in Zurich, ABB is a young company formed by the merger of Sweden's Asea and Switzerland's Brown Boveri. ABB generates USD 25 Billion, employs 240,000 people. In this interview, Barnevik offers a detailed guide to the theory and practice of building a "multidomestic" enterprise. He explains ABB's matrix system - a structure that leverages global market power without eroding local presence and responsiveness. He describes a new breed of global managers. |
