Ardichvili, Alexander; Harmon, Brian; Cardozo, Richard N.; Reynolds, Paul D.; Williams, Mary L.
Human Resource Development Quarterly, v9 n1 p55-70 Spr 1998
New businesses (n=539) were surveyed in 1986-87 and 1992-93. People responsible for start-up retained responsibility for marketing and related functions. Production, service delivery, purchasing, shipping, and computer functions were most often delegated, usually to internal employees. Organization size did not influence functional differentiation.
