Organization design

an approach in which a firm decentralizes for a period to explore and then reintegrates its units, which simulations show can outperform permanent structures.

In organization design, temporary decentralization refers to an approach in which a firm decentralizes for a period to explore and then reintegrates its units, which simulations show can outperform permanent structures. This meaning comes from Siggelkow (2003) in Organization Science.[1]
