The increased levels of internationalization of firms created the  need for headquarters to formulate precise guidelines of how to  manage such corporations regarding their strategic configuration,  co-ordination and culture building, resources allocation, and  administrative context setting. These four dimensions are used in  this book to understand how the Roman Empire, the Medici Family  and the Rothschild bank structured their relationships between  headquarters and foreign units. Rome was the headquarters of a  multinational organization called ¿Roman Empire¿, which over two  thousand years ago faced the challenge of how to conquer and  administer the known world. The ¿Medici¿ family developed and  managed a tight network of subsidiaries during the medieval period  and the Rothschild bank serves as a current example of a  corporation facing the challenge of coping with its subsidies all over  the world. The book illustrates the four dimensions of coordination  and control within multinational firms and discusses the  contingencies of diverging approaches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783844392456\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA Historical Perspective\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783844392456","offer_id":39495975829597,"sku":"9783844392456","price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/019bdcf4-2667-410e-a4aa-8a04fc7512a6.jpg?v=1757912888","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/do-corporate-headquarters-add-value-von-serena-perozzo","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
