  • Abstract
    This paper summarizes the results of a questionnaire from 38 companies with separate commercial and technical divisions and whose technical divisions deal with comparatively high technology. These companies are among the larger companies in the United States. The basic purpose of the analysis is to compare the ways in which top management of these companies treats these divisions with respect to capital allocations, incentive compensation, technology transfer, and executive rotation.
