Adapting to Environmental Jolts.
Meyer, Alan D.
Administrative Science Quarterly, v27 n4 p515-37 Dec 1982
Examines the reactions of three San Francisco (California) hospitals to the 1975 doctors' strike. Analyzes the anticipatory, responsive, and readjustment phases of the hospitals' adaptations in terms of each hospital's previous market strategy, organizational structure and ideology, and deployment of slack resources, including financial, human, technological, and administrative resources.
