| Tiivistelmä: | This paper examines the strategic and organizational evolution of large Spanish companies in a current time period, combining the Chandlerian programme with processual analysis and drawing on documentary sources and interviews. In the model of corporate evolution some characteristics of new organizational structures will coexist with some features of old ones. The findings highlight the 'multidivisional network', but also reflect the emergence of a new kind of organizational form called 'holding network', which is more decentralized than the multidivisional form. The holding network stresses the communication among people of different levels, both vertically and horizontally. In the future, there is a need to study to what extent these patterns and new organizational forms should be regarded as a transitory or consolidated phenomenon. |
