Resumo(s)

This study examines CUF’s adoption of the M-form structure, an organizational structure dividing a company into semi-autonomous divisions, each with its own resources and responsibilities. By delving into the challenges related to the M-form adoption, this research emphasizes the crucial role of management philosophy and the inherent process modifications necessary. The comparison of other M-form adoption cases in developed countries with that of CUF highlights that these companies faced considerable challenges during the adoption process. Further, the analysis reveals that McKinsey, the consultancy guiding the implementation, customized its recommendations to CUF's distinctive circumstances as a company operating in a peripheral country.
