Efficient Organization: A Governance Approach

In Efficient Organization, Mikko Ketokivi and Joseph T. Mahoney take a practical and decision-oriented approach to organization design and governance. They first identity and discuss the main organization design and governance problems that arise in creating an organization, in a growing one, and in a mature business. Then they examine contracting and relationships within organizations and with other entities in addition to special topics such as non-profits, broader stakeholder issues, and technology development. Highlighting the importance of securing cooperation across individuals and organizations for mutual value creation, this book provides tools that decision-makers can use in their own organizations.
