Abstract:
This chapter enables the reader to understand that in a dynamic environment, it is not only linear growth and development of businesses that are observed, but also a contraction of activities, closure of unprofitable units, departments, or administrative divisions, merger of similar functions, and discontinuation of the production of economically unprofitable products. In this way, management streamlines the business and improves its competitiveness in an environment of constant change and transformation, which is imposed by economic crises, intensifying competition, and globalization. Consequently, this chapter sheds light on a new dimension that is usually ignored in the analysis offered by classic business management and organization textbooks.
