Historical Model

In his last two major works, Inventing the Electronic Century and Shaping the Industrial Century, Alfred Chandler extended his well-known historical model put forth originally in Strategy and Structure, The Visible Hand, and Scale and Scope by drawing on insights from scholarship dealing with organizational learning and evolutionary economics. In the earlier works, he won high praise, as evinced by the awarding of the Bancroft and Pulitzer prizes for his contribution in advancing the understanding of history, economics, and sociology. His work presented a powerful alternative vision of businesspeople from the version usually communicated by the older Progressive school of history. Although practitioners of the latter brand of history generally acknowledged industrialization's material benefits, many worried that such change represented a Faustian bargain: they feared that concentrated economic power threatened the preservation of cherished democratic institutions and values.

The objective of this research is to test empirically the strategy, structure and equifinality paradigm in northeast México companies. Businesses, in this region of the country, were studied through the application of a questionnaire. The paradigm of Chandler regarding “structure followsstrategy” is the independent variable. The dependent variable is established as finding equifinal results with or without the presence of the strategy-structure paradigm. From this study, two contributions materialize. The first one is that it is effectively true the relationship between strategy and structure. The second and more important one is that the equifinality paradigm was in fact true and empirical evidence was obtained. To determine the reasons for the functioning of this paradigm, more research is needed. “No matter the beginnings”, final success may be explained by the wholistic nature of management.Palabras clave: Sistemas, situacional, estrategia, estructura, equifinalidad, caosResumen. Esta investigación busca comprobar empíricamente el paradigma entre estrategiaestructura y equifinalidad en empresas del noreste de México. Se llevó al cabo un estudio a través de la aplicación de cuestionarios a negocios de esa parte del país. Se consideró como variableindependiente la existencia del modelo de Chandler acerca de que la “estructura organizacional sigue a la estrategia”. La variable dependiente, se establece como la obtención de resultados equifinales (igualmente finales), con o sin la existencia del paradigma de estrategia-estructura. Dos contribuciones emergen de este estudio. La primera consiste en haber encontrado que efectivamente existe una relación entre estrategia y estructura en las empresas investigadas. La segunda, y más importante, es que se evidenció, con prueba empírica, el paradigma de
