ports to the CEO ->CEO to focus on guiding the broad
policies of the enterprise

Multidivisional structure
*to maintain a delicate balance*M.C., P.G ->Coordinated control in the decentralized organization
![Page 14: Executive Decision Making at General Motors](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062411/56816687550346895dda35ae/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
3) Policy and Decision-Making Process
P.Gs 달마다 표준과 정책결정 위해 모임 -plant design, specifications, new technologies,
grades for materials, labor contracts, HR pay policies...
-No formal authority but, expected to carry out the policies set
Senior managers, Sloan 미팅 참석 , 반대의견 등 논쟁 유도->Senior manager 들을 더 넓은 이슈로

3) Policy and Decision-Making Process
• As profit centers, the division devel-oped their own plans and forecasts
• Hall mark of Sloan’s GM• Analytical decision making at all
management levels • “the figures did not give automatic
answers to problems” • ->ROI 등으로 성과 측정

Results • 수익증대• Balance 위해서는 환경변화 필요
• Senior Manage-ment
“horns of a delemma”
새로운 조건에 닿기 위해서 관리 필요고위관리자가 분리된 이들을 관리하려 노력하는 희망없는 직위 되지 않도록

Ⅱ. Coasting Toward Collision• 1960s~1990s• 환경변화 ①increased competition ②tighter governmental
regulation&standards ③proliferation of car models and plat-
forms-1970’s oil crisis -> fuel-efficient car but, 빠른대처하지 못함

1. Strategy• 부적절한 대처→homogenization of cars across the
divisions ≫brand confusion• Revenue 보다 cost 에 집중• Arrogance and insularity• What was good for our country was
good for General Motors, and vice versa

2. Structure• In the 1960s, 1970s• Cost and product proliferation →more centralized assembly division• But, not enough• Because of changes in vehicle structure• Changes+lack of cost competitiveness =new organization with two car group (a dacades later)

CPC(small cars)
Canada
