Publisher's Synopsis
This practical guide to cost cutting advocates fundamental changes in multilevel organizations, demonstrates how to integrate aquisitions smoothly and economically, and shows how Country Managers can make a real impact. Checklists detail characteristics of today's companies' approaches to organization and cost reduction, and typical reorganization blueprints. The report looks at the causes of organizational inefficiency rather than the symptoms, and, having solved these, the research suggests that companies are likely to evolve into flexible and streamlined operations.
