Abstract
Many companies struggle with obsolete R&D structures when attempting to draw on the potential of global R&D. Traditional R&D organization proves to be insufficient for many new challenges: R&D managers must learn to manage an additional organizational level in order to ensure global R&D efficiency.
“There’s absolutely no reason why an organization that you created two years ago has any relevance to the organization that you need two years from now.”
Les Vadasz, Senior Vice President, Intel Corp.
