6. Steps in the process of organizing
6
Identification
of activities
Grouping of
activities
Assignment
of duties
Delegation of
authority
Fayol categorized
business activities into 6
categories : Technical,
commercial, financial,
security, accounting,
managerial
• Necessary for :
specialization,
coordination, control
• Activities may be
clubbed on bases of
functions, products,
territories, customers
etc
• Clear definition of
responsibility
• Avoid duplication of
work or overlapping
efforts
• Chain of command is
established
8. Major Concerns in Organizing
• Division of Labor (Differentiation)
• Coordination (Integration)
In Reference to the Organizational Chart,
Organizing Involves:
• VERTICAL STRUCTURE
Coordination from Top to Bottom
• HORIZONTAL STRUCTURE
Departmentalization (Who works together?)
8
9. Work Specialization
• Degree to which tasks are subdivided into individual jobs
• A highly specialized job is narrow in scope
• Increases efficiency up to a point
• With extreme specialization, workers tend to become bored and
alienated
9
10. Authority
• Managers have authority because of the positions they
hold (not who they are)
• To be effective, it must be accepted by subordinates.
Responsibility
• Duty to perform the task an employee has been
assigned
• Authority should be commensurate with responsibility.
10
11. Delegation
• Process to transfer authority and responsibility to positions below
• Delegation does not reduce responsibility
• Benefits both the organization and the individual employee
11
12. Common Practice is to:
• CENTRALIZE (authority at top)
• Accounting
• Finance
• Human Resources Management
• Information Systems
• DECENTRALIZE (much delegation)
• Production
• Marketing
12
13. Span of Management
• Number of employees reporting to a supervisor
• Tradition has recommended a span of management of four to seven
subordinates
• What is best depends on the situation
13
14. Factors Affecting Span of Control
• Leadership style
• Latitude extended to subordinates in decision making
• Nature of interpersonal relationships inherent in
each situation
14
15. • Self-directed teams and the empowerment of
employees lessen the amount of direct control
supervisors have over their subordinates
15
16. Chain of Command
• The line of authority, shown in the organization chart, that
links all persons and shows who reports to whom.
CEO
VP Marketing VP Production VP Finance

19. Departmentalization
Basis for grouping job positions into departments and departments into the total
organization.
• Internal Operations Oriented
• Functional
• Network (Virtual)
• Output Oriented
• Divisional
• Product
• Geographic
• Customer
• Team (Cluster)
• Combinations
• Hybrid (different types at different places in an org.)
• Matrix (different types at simultaneous at the same places in an org.) 19
20. Choosing a bases for Departmentation
• Specialization
• Coordination
• Economy
• Control
• Adequate attention
• Local conditions
• Human considerations
20
21. Functional Approach
Departments based on similar activities, skills and resource
use.
Advantages:
• Efficient use of resources
• Economies of Scale
• In-depth skill specialization
Disadvantages:
• Poor communication among
departments
• Slow response to external changes
• Loyalty more to function than
customer or the whole organization
21
22. Divisional Approach
• Departments are grouped together based on organizational outputs
(e.g., product, geography, customer)
• Functions (e.g., marketing) are split among the divisions
• Its advantages and disadvantages tend to be the opposite of those of
the functional approach
22
23. Divisions
Advantages:

environment

Disadvantages:
Duplication

divisions

Has direct authority flowing
vertically from the top.
Is generally found in small organizations
because support staff is needed once they
begin to grow.
Line Structure
25
26. Has line authority similar to line structure.
Staff employees assist the line function.
Specialized staff activities are added that
support line activities.
Line and Staff Structure

many organizations.
Line managers have both line and
functional authority.

medium-sized organizations. It tends to
centralize decision making at top levels
of the organization.
Functional Structure
29
30. Each major product is given division status.
Incorporates line and staff structure into
these divisions.
Each product tends to operate independently
of other divisions.
Company’s products provide a basis
for its structure.
Product Structure
30
31. Is often used in conjunction with line,
line and staff, and functional
structures.
Some committees perform
important managerial functions;

Committee Structure
31

complex projects.
Results in the formation of temporary
new units to accommodate the
undertaking of a new project.

from other areas of the organization and
assigning them to the new temporary unit.
Matrix Structure
32
33. Matrix Approach
• Functional and divisional chains of command simultaneously
• Violates the unity of command concept.
33
34. Matrix Structure - Why?
• To get the advantages of both Functional and Divisional Structures
• Sophisticated technology, fast-changing environment
• Diverse products and geographical areas
34
35. Disadvantages of Matrix

• High conflict between two sides of matrix
• Need for extensive human relations training
35
36. Team Approach
• Cross-functional teams (Clusters) consist of employees from various
functional departments
• Teams typically have more decision making power than previously
held by workers at their levels.
36
37. Team Approach
• Advantages
• Quicker response time
• Better morale
• Reduced administrative overhead
• Disadvantages
• Conflict

• Advantages
• Increases competitiveness, especially of small firms
• Flexibility
• Reduced Costs
• Disadvantages

40. Mechanistic vs. Organic Organizations
• Vertical vs. Horizontal Structural Dominance
• Rigid vs. Flexible
• Specialized Jobs vs. Unspecialized
• Boss Control vs. Self-Control
• Centralized Decisions vs. Decentralized
• Bureaucratic vs. Non-bureaucratic
40
41. Departmentalization Types
• (From most Mechanistic to most Organic)
• Functional
• Functional with integrators, cross-functional committees, etc.
• Matrix
• Divisional
• Team
41
42. When the Mechanistic (Vertical) Approach is
most Appropriate:
• External Environment is: Stable
• Growth and Innovation Goals are:
Few or Nonexistent (Internal Stability)
• The Organization’s Size is: Large
• The Technology is: Mass Production (or involving low-level
skills)
42
43. When is the Organic Approach most Appropriate:
• External Environment is: Unstable
• Growth and Innovation Goals are: Numerous
• Technology is:
Small Batch
Continuous Process
Flexible Manufacturing (Computer Assisted)
Service, especially professional service jobs.
43
44. Service Technology
• Tends to be more Organic (Horizontal) than manufacturing
• Employees have direct contact with customers
• Output of the firm is intangible
• Production and consumption are simultaneous
44
47. • Nature of Organization
• Greater the volume of work and
paper processing activities, the
more desirable centralization of
office activities becomes
• Two type of organizations have centralized
most of their office activities
• Insurance companies
• Financialcompanies
47
Factors That Determine Feasibility of Centralization
