Abstract

This paper explores variations in organization design due to factors like industry type, organization size, maturity, technology intensity and strategic focus. Data was collected through a questionnaire survey and Key Informant Interviews (KII). No single factor was found to have a significant impact on all dimensions. Bigger organizations were found to have relatively decentralized information management system and service organizations had decentralized control mechanism and two-way communication practices. Organizations with relatively greater technology focus tended to use decentralized decision making, control mechanism and information management practices.
