How can we relate what Carly Fiorina did at HP to this course in Management and organization?
Autor: Sixten Bigner Af KlintbergRespuesta:
When beginning her position at HP, the company had a high-commitment culture. The so called "HP way" was characterized by progressive management ideas, focus on teamwork, and profits over revenue growth - "profits and people". By the early 2000's, the high commitment culture was gone and the company was now run in a far more hierarchical fashion than before, with classic vertical coordination. What is obvious is that Fiorina changed the company culture from being inspired by the HR framework, to the structural framework. This is evident in how she introduced incentive-based pay, which is a great example of Theory X vs Y, where the first believes employees has to be motivated by a "carrot", in is heavily opposed by the HR framework.
