Jeffery David Whippo Believes That Organizational
Structure is an Important Aspect When It Comes to
Company’s Growth
Explaining the importance of organizational structure, Jeffery D
Whippo believes that it is important for any growing company to
provide guidance and clarity on specific human resource issues,
such as managerial authority. Having a good organizational
structure provides guidance to all employees by laying out the
official reporting relationships that govern the workflow of the
company. Moreover, a formal outline of the company’s structure
makes it easier to add new positions in the company.
Organizational structure improves operational efficiency by
providing clarity to employees at all levels of a company. It should
be designed to with clear lines of communication in mind. Planning
the organizational structure ensures there are enough human
resources with the right skills to accomplish the company’s goals,
and ensures that responsibilities are clearly defined.
Jeffery David Whippo further states that an organizational
structure is an important factor when it comes to the company’s
success, growth, and profit. It further gives clear goals and makes
sure that responsibilities are clearly defined. Moreover, if the
structure is properly defined, it becomes very easy for the company
employees to communicate. They would know who to report to and
they would have clear lines of communication in mind.
He further makes a point that poorly structured organizations find
that critical deadlines are not met because there were not sufficient
human resources in each department to accomplish all parts of a
given task, or because it was not clear whose ultimate responsibility
the project was.
