Environment, Strategy, and Power Within Top Management Teams
研究区分了组织面临的两类关键权变因素：环境与战略，并探讨了高层管理者如何通过应对这些权变因素来获得权力，提出了一个时间性的关键权变权力模型。
This study distinguishes two sources of critical contingencies for organizations: environment and strategy. In turn, it explores how coping with each type of contingency is related to power within top management teams. Executives had high power if, by virtue either of their functional area of scanning behavior, they coped with the dominant requirement imposed by their industry's environment. Power patterns within each industry were further affected by the extent to which executives coped with the contingencies posed by their organizations' particular strategies. A temporal critical contingencies model of power is proposed.
