The Transformation to Professional Management at Pardee Homes

IJEE Vol 3: Issue 2, 2005, Pages 185-204

Author(s): Michael McGee, Eric Flamholtz and Kathryn Schreiner

Abstract:
This article presents a case study of the transition of Pardee Homes from an entrepreneurship to a professionally managed firm. It examines changes in leadership, planning processes, and organizational structure involved in the completion of a transformation from a family owned business to a professionally managed firm. It focuses in particular upon the changes in organizational structure over a period of more than a decade. These changes were a key component of the overall transformation process. The case demonstrates the practical difficulties involved in the application of the theoretical constructs of organizational structure in the real world.
