Suggests that the key question for multibusiness companies — companies whose constituent businesses are diverse in nature and operate in several different marketplaces — is not which business to be in, nor how to structure them, nor even what size they should be: but how the parent company creates a strategy which adds value to constituent businesses. Uses explanatory Figures for emphasis and stresses the need to define business unit boundaries and corporate reporting structures with clarity.
