Whether a change in the composition of top management reflects the
magnitude of a company′s strategic change, and whether this fit between
strategic change and top management change is related to organisational
effectiveness are discussed. Data were yielded by a content analysis of
1981‐82 Business Week articles on 106 US business organisations.
It is suggested by the findings that top management change follows a
strategic change when the latter involves a change in both the
firm′s grand strategy and its strategy‐making orientation.
