| Tiivistelmä: | The relationships between the corporate headquarters of multidivisional firms and their operating divisions and the conditions under which such relationships change are examined. The moderating effects of contextual attributes on the adaptive behaviour were also investigated. Analysis of panel data from nearly 100 multihospital systems suggests that organizations generally practice selective decentralization under conditions of increasing uncertainty but that organizational age, dispersion, and initial control arrangements significantly moderate the direction and magnitude of such changes. |
