| Abstract | Summary form only given, as follows. A study of strategic planning in technology-based firms indicates that the appropriate alignment of three basic organizational factors significantly improves a firm's long-term effectiveness, that is, its ability to achieve its goals. The factors, which act individually and interactively, are: the nature of a firm's competitive environment, which can range along a scale from static/nonthreatening to dynamic/threatening; the style of the management control process, ranging from centralized/rigid to decentralized/flexible; and the type of incentive system, ranging from weak to strong. The three factors and an index of effectiveness are combined in an equation that closely tracks the qualitative principles of current organizational theory. The equation has been solved for wide ranges of the factors. Results were in the form of sets of contour graphs. A firm's current factors are measured along their scales by responses to sets of questions submitted to managers. Given the scale location of a particular firm's competitive environment, the graphs suggest a style of management control, and a type of incentive program that, compared to those currently in place, can create a more appropriate environment for maximizing the firm's effectiveness.<> |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
