Abstract :
An organization is modeled such that its bare structure becomes explicit. Accordingly, it is written a production function where a management factor approximately reflects the organization structure effect on the produced value added. The management factor is calculated for several European countries manufacturing sectors and correlated with labor, knowledge and capital productivities. Firms´ sizes and the importance of outsourcing are also related to the management factor.
