Abstract

The task of strategic corporate management and governance is to deal with the decline in complexity between market and company in a way that the requirements and effects of market complexity will adequately be matched by corporate complexity in order to secure the long-time survivability of the company. Systems theory and cybernetics provide two strategies for the configuration of corporate complexity: the strategy of variety by Ashby, which negatively correlates with the strategy of selectivity by Luhmann. Thus, this article aims at developing a well-founded scheme of phases for the configuration of corporate complexity in order to relax the dilemma of variety and selectivity as well as the correlated dilemma of effectivity and efficiency.
