Context: configuration approaches
Strategic management is about aligning various organizational and
environmental elements so that they form consistent grouping. Relevant
elements: strategy, technology, structure, processes, type of environment etc.
Groupings that show perfect alignment (fit) → configurations (likely to perform
best)
Contingency approach: ‘It all depends”… structure should reflect the structure
of the organization
Configuration approach: elements of organizational design logically configure
into internal consistent groupings that match the situation → there is more
(theory) to the “it all depends” approach
Entry mode choices:
, Strategic alliances (contractual and equity)
