Sony’s “Gaijin” CEO is Reorganizing the Company

Answer the two-case/discussion questions below. Be sure as you answer the two discussion questions to apply theory and terminology from your text and outside readings. 

1. What pressures and forces from the environment led Stringer to change the balance between centralizing and decentralizing authority at Sony?

2. How would you describe Stringer’s approach to organizing? Is he seeking to create a more mechanistic or organic structure, or what kind of balance between them?

In addition, the response to the first question should demonstrate that you have knowledge regarding the difference between centralized and decentralized authority as you discuss it in terms of Sony. This can be demonstrated through your use of statements of the meanings of the terms, use of appropriate terminology and appropriate application of materials.
Your analysis should be no more than six pages long, double-spaced. It should also include a minimum of 5 peer reviewed references. The references should be listed at the end of your analysis.
