    Organizational structures -- Origins of organizational structures -- Stable organizational growth -- The U.S. corporation's decline -- The shape of the new American competitor -- Future organizations.
    This nation’s inability to compete in worldwide competition is an all too often told story. American corporations have been struggling to stay in business and be profitable. The American corporations have invested millions of dollars to upgrade their technology in order to become more productive. But it has not helped in all cases.
    This paper explores some of the causes that placed the American corporation in its present state with respect to organizational structures, and proposes a solution.
    Historical and present day organizational philosophies have been explored and reported on. The advantages/disadvantages of each design structure is documented. In addition, the organization's evolutionary process and the internal and extenal factors affecting the organization are reported.
    This information was utilized to formulate a base to make some assumptions on why the American corporation's lack of productivity and competitive position is the way it is. Furthermore, examples of successful corporations have been analyzed to discover their formula for success.
    This information provided the insight to propose the "Formula for Success " triangle that describes four key facets. Conscientiously addressing these four facets will not assure prosperity and growth, but it will provide a solid foundation for the corporation to build on.
