The relationship between headquarters and subsidiaries is of interest to the business community, as well as to the academic community. There is considerable literature on headquarter subsidiary relationships but no link has been identified between the relationships and operational performance capabilities, specifically regarding crisis management especially for new emerging companies. The set up of HSR is considered to be of significant importance for newly emerging German Industrial Technology (IT) companies. Literature of all relevant areas, generic headquarter-subsidiary relationships, typical problem fields of newly emerging multinational companies, and crisis management are investigated in order to identify the missing links. / Hypotheses are developed that are proven, or not proven, by the literature. / Further research is suggested, leading to a case study and a model that will improve operational performance. / Thesis (DBA(DoctorateofBusinessAdministration))--University of South Australia, 2007.
