  • William Ouchi-Biographybiographical Statement of William Ouchi
    William Ouchi-BiographyBiographical Statement of William Ouchi January 25, 2016 Bill Ouchi retired from the UCLA Anderson School of Management at the end of June, 2015, and was then recalled to active duty, 43% time, as Distinguished Professor Emeritus at the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine. There, he continues his work of the past six years in creating a new Ecosystem within which faculty and staff entrepreneurs in medicine can turn their inventions into practical realities that reach the outside world to help patients. Ouchi’s lifetime research has focused on one issue: how can big, complex organizations be re-structured and managed so as to be more successful? He has studied a variety of organizations, including federal agencies, retail chain stores, semiconductor, computer, and telecommunications companies, automobile manufacturers, Japanese companies, and urban school districts. He has served as consultant to urban districts that sought to decentralize, including New York City, San Diego, Honolulu, and Colorado. Ouchi has written three books and several academic articles that summarize his study of the organizational structure and management of the school districts of Edmonton, Boston, New York City, St. Paul, Houston, Chicago, Seattle, San Francisco, Tokyo, and Los Angeles, all of which had decentralized or were attempting to do so. His team of eleven researchers visited hundreds of schools and more than a thousand classrooms. He found that large school districts, like large companies, thrive when they adopt decentralization of decision-making that empowers each school. He also found that every one of these U.S. districts had closely studied the decentralization system that has been successful in Edmonton, Alberta, for more than forty years.

  • Structure, Control, and Results in Urban Public Education
    ORGANIZATIONAL CONFIGURATION AND PERFORMANCE: THE CASE OF PRIMARY AND SECONDARY SCHOOL SYSTEMS By William G. Ouchi, Bruce S. Cooper, Lydia G. Segal, Tim DeRoche, Carolyn Brown, and Elizabeth Galvin The Anderson School of Management UCLA 110 Westwood Plaza, Suite B523 Los Angeles, Ca. 90095-1481 [email protected] May 30, 2003 – Working Paper Draft This research was funded through grants from the National Science Foundation (Grant # 0115559), Dr. Peter Bing, the John M. Olin Foundation, the Frank and Kathy Baxter Family Foundation, and the Thomas B. Fordham Foundation. The authors wish to acknowledge the work done on this project by John Gabree, Bernice Tsai, James Mirocha, and Stephanie Kagimoto. We also received helpful suggestions on early drafts from Fred Ali, Christine Beckman, Tom Boysen, Gloria Chalmers, Beverly Donohue, Harry Handler, Tom Hofstedt, Sanford Jacoby, Dan Katzir, Barbara Lawrence, Paul Lawrence, David Lewin, Allan Odden, Janice Riddell, Randy Ross, Morton Schapiro, Dorothy Siegel, Olav Sorenson, Deborah Stipek, Kaye Stripling, Joseph Viteritti, and Oliver Williamson, for which we are grateful. ABSTRACT Williamson has argued that in large organizations, decentralization of a particular type, known as the M-Form, outperforms more centralized types. We ask whether the effect applies to large school systems, as is does to businesses. Our research team investigated nine school systems, including the three largest districts in the United States; three (in Canada and the U.S.) that use an innovative budgeting system to achieve a radically decentralized M-Form structure; and the three largest Catholic Archdiocesan systems in the U.S. Our data generally support the view that decentralized public school districts outperform more centralized districts on student performance outcomes, administrative efficiency, and incidence of corruption.
