My comment:

I have never heard of chimneys used for business and it is not in Collins Concise Spanish Dictionary and trados.com gave me that I hope it answers the question. trados had "ni caso" but I put "ningun" for ni you would need nor and there is no nor .

Dear Arlene, in this context the image of “chimneys” is used to illustrate part of a business model in which each individual department of a company stands on its own as if they were chimneys -all equal, none above -or taller than- the other, as far as power goes. Regards ;)

My comment:

En el apartado Advantages of Using the Model, cito: "Ford clarified and delegated authority to all of it's managers, making sure that <<chimneys of power>> were not allowed to exist; that is, no one group, such as the Finance Department, would have more power that other groups..." (page 27)

En el apartado: "Importance of delegating authority effectively" cito: Why should Managers and Supervisors delegate authority effectively? There are a number of reasons 1. To prevent power groups -chimneys of power- from developing.

Este modelo fue implementado en los años 80, no sé si existan traducciones de este libro.

I'd place "son" before "las chimeneas," not after "especializadas," in this case.
