Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Structural inertia refers to a firm's resistance to change due to its established systems, procedures, and organizational culture. In a firm that has been successful over a long period of time, the established systems and procedures have likely contributed to that success, making it more challenging to change them. Therefore, structural inertia is stronger in such a firm.
