| Tiivistelmä: | This article develops a formal theory of the structural aspects of organizational change. It concentrates on changes in an organization's architecture, depicted as code system. It models the common process where by an initial architectural change prompts other changes in the organization, generating a cascade of changes that represents the full reorganization. The main argument ties centrality of the organizational unit initiating a change to the total time that the organization spends reorganizing and to the associated opportunity costs. The central theorem holds that the expected deleterious effect of a change in architecture on the mortality hazard increases with viscosity and the intricacy of the organizational design. |
