| Tiivistelmä: | On the basis of hospitals with matrix management programs several hypotheses concerning matrix management were tested. It is verified that matrix management involves several elements that can be scaled to form increasingly complex types of lateral coordinative devices. The scalability of these elements is evident only cross-sectionally. Matrix complexity is not an outcome of program age, nor does matrix complexity at the time of implementation influence program survival. It is not determined by the organization's task diversity or uncertainty. There are several modifications in prevailing theories of matrix organization. |
