| Abstract: | This study examines a Korean firm, the Samsung Corporation, to find out: What are the characteristics of the organizational innovations in the era of globalization? What are the consequences of the organizational innovations? What problems does the company face in implementing them? And what are the remedies to overcome those problems? The company has made efforts in three ways: 1. operating teams; 2. flattening of hierarchy; and 3. networking. These three innovations were interrelated and can be often observed in a single organization which is labelled a “Clustered Web” organization. The innovations faced problems and required time to be implemented. Remedies for those problems and implications are discussed. |
