Abstract

THE AUTHORS HAVE ARGUED that limited organizational capability is the most critical constraint facing international companies that attempt to respond to new strategic demands ("Managing across Borders: New Strategic Requirements," SMR, Summer 1987). Here, they describe how companies have overcome this constraint by building a "transnational" organization able to cope with the increasing complexity of the international environment. Ed.
