This paper analyses implications and effectiveness of the implementation of “Key Account Teams”. The paper analyses why Campbell and Bailyn’s Boston Office are making these design changes? How did Winston go about developing them? Why? How does the new vs old incentive system help or get in the way? Review Winston’s decision prior to the New York meeting. Afterwards, what should he recommend? How is Winston’s job different after the changes? The analysis uses Tushman’s congruence model and includes problem identification, analysis and discussion of major issues, identification and assessment of alternative solutions, recommendations and an implementation plan.
