O RGANIZATIONAL S TRUCTURE AND D ESIGN Chapter 9 9–1

D ESIGNING O RGANIZATIONAL S TRUCTURE Organizing Arranging and structuring work to accomplish an organization’s goals. Organizational Structure The formal arrangement of jobs within an organization. Organizational Design A process involving decisions about six key elements: Work specialization Departmentalization Chain of command Span of control Centralization and decentralization Formalization 9–2

O RGANIZATIONAL S TRUCTURE Work Specialization The degree to which tasks in the organization are divided into separate jobs with each step completed by a different person. Overspecialization can result in human diseconomies from boredom, fatigue, stress, poor quality, increased absenteeism, and higher turnover. 9–3

D EPARTMENTALIZATION BY T YPE 9–4 Functional Grouping jobs by functions performed Product Grouping jobs by product line Geographical Grouping jobs on the basis of territory or geography Process Grouping jobs on the basis of product or customer flow Customer Grouping jobs by type of customer and needs

E XHIBIT 9–2 ( CONT ’ D ) G EOGRAPHICAL D EPARTMENTALIZATION 9–6

E XHIBIT 9–2 ( CONT ’ D ) P RODUCT D EPARTMENTALIZATION 9–7

E XHIBIT 9–2 ( CONT ’ D ) P ROCESS D EPARTMENTALIZATION 9–8 +More efficient flow of work activities –Can only be used with certain types of products

E XHIBIT 9–2 ( CONT ’ D ) C USTOMER D EPARTMENTALIZATION 9–9 + Customers’ needs and problems can be met by specialists - Duplication of functions - Limited view of organizational goals

O RGANIZATIONAL S TRUCTURE ( CONT ’ D ) Chain of Command The continuous line of authority that extends from upper levels of an organization to the lowest levels of the organization and clarifies who reports to whom. 9–10

O RGANIZATIONAL S TRUCTURE ( CONT ’ D ) Authority The obligation or expectation to perform. Unity of Command The concept that a person should have one boss and should report only to that person. 9–11

O RGANIZATIONAL S TRUCTURE ( CONT ’ D ) Span of Control The number of employees who can be effectively and efficiently supervised by a manager. Width of span is affected by: Skills and abilities of the manager Employee characteristics Characteristics of the work being done Similarity of tasks Complexity of tasks Physical proximity of subordinates Standardization of tasks Sophistication of the organization’s information system Strength of the organization’s culture Preferred style of the manager 9–12

E XHIBIT 9–3C ONTRASTING S PANS OF C ONTROL 9–13

O RGANIZATIONAL S TRUCTURE ( CONT ’ D ) Centralization The degree to which decision making is concentrated at upper levels in the organization. Organizations in which top managers make all the decisions and lower-level employees simply carry out those orders. Decentralization Organizations in which decision making is pushed down to the managers who are closest to the action. Employee Empowerment Increasing the decision-making authority (power) of employees. 9–14

E XHIBIT 9–4F ACTORS THAT I NFLUENCE THE A MOUNT OF C ENTRALIZATION AND D ECENTRALIZATION 9–15 More CentralizationMore Centralization  Environment is stable.  Lower-level managers are not as capable or experienced at making decisions as upper-level managers.  Lower-level managers do not want to have a say in decisions.  Decisions are relatively minor.  Organization is facing a crisis or the risk of company failure.  Company is large.  Effective implementation of company strategies depends on managers retaining say over what happens.

E XHIBIT 9–4 ( CONT ’ D ) F ACTORS THAT I NFLUENCE THE A MOUNT OF C ENTRALIZATION AND D ECENTRALIZATION 9–16 More DecentralizationMore Decentralization  Environment is complex, uncertain.  Lower-level managers are capable and experienced at making decisions.  Lower-level managers want a voice in decisions.  Decisions are significant.  Corporate culture is open to allowing managers to have a say in what happens.  Company is geographically dispersed.  Effective implementation of company strategies depends on managers having involvement and flexibility to make decisions.

O RGANIZATIONAL S TRUCTURE ( CONT ’ D ) Formalization The degree to which jobs within the organization are standardized and the extent to which employee behavior is guided by rules and procedures. Highly formalized jobs offer little discretion over what is to be done. Low formalization means fewer constraints on how employees do their work. 9–17

E XHIBIT 9–5M ECHANISTIC V ERSUS O RGANIC O RGANIZATION 9–18 High specialization Rigid departmentalization Clear chain of command Narrow spans of control Centralization High formalization Cross-functional teams Cross-hierarchical teams Free flow of information Wide spans of control Decentralization Low formalization

C ONTINGENCY F ACTORS ( CONT ’ D ) Strategy and Structure Achievement of strategic goals is facilitated by changes in organizational structure that accommodate and support change. Size and Structure As an organization grows larger, its structure tends to change from organic to mechanistic with increased specialization, departmentalization, centralization, and rules and regulations. 9–19

C ONTINGENCY F ACTORS ( CONT ’ D ) Environmental Uncertainty and Structure Mechanistic organizational structures tend to be most effective in stable and simple environments. The flexibility of organic organizational structures is better suited for dynamic and complex environments. 9–20

C OMMON O RGANIZATIONAL D ESIGNS Traditional Designs Simple structure Low departmentalization, wide spans of control, centralized authority, little formalization Functional structure Departmentalization by function Operations, finance, marketing, human resources, and product research and development Divisional structure Composed of separate business units or divisions with limited autonomy under the coordination and control the parent corporation. 9–21

E XHIBIT 9–8C ONTEMPORARY O RGANIZATIONAL D ESIGNS 9–23 Team Structure What it is: What it is: A structure in which the entire organization is made up of work groups or teams. Advantages: Advantages: Employees are more involved and empowered. Reduced barriers among functional areas. Disadvantages: Disadvantages: No clear chain of command. Pressure on teams to perform. Matrix-Project Structure What it is: A structure that assigns specialists from different functional areas to work on projects but who return to their areas when the project is completed. Project is a structure in which employees continuously work on projects. As one project is completed, employees move on to the next project. Advantages: Advantages: Fluid and flexible design that can respond to environmental changes. Faster decision making. Disadvantages: Disadvantages: Complexity of assigning people to projects. Task and personality conflicts.

E XHIBIT 9–8 ( CONT ’ D ) C ONTEMPORARY O RGANIZATIONAL D ESIGNS 9–24 Boundaryless Structure What it is: A structure that is not defined by or limited to artificial horizontal, vertical, or external boundaries; includes virtual and network types of organizations. Advantages: Advantages: Highly flexible and responsive. Draws on talent wherever it’s found. Disadvantages: Disadvantages: Lack of control. Communication difficulties.

O RGANIZATIONAL D ESIGNS ( CONT ’ D ) Contemporary Organizational Designs Team structures The entire organization is made up of work groups or self- managed teams of empowered employees. Matrix and project structures Specialists from different functional departments are assigned to work on projects led by project managers. Matrix and project participants have two managers. In project structures, employees work continuously on projects; moving on to another project as each project is completed. 9–25

O RGANIZATIONAL D ESIGNS ( CONT ’ D ) Contemporary Organizational Designs (cont’d) Boundaryless Organization An flexible and unstructured organizational design that is intended to break down external barriers between the organization and its customers and suppliers. Removes internal (horizontal) boundaries: Eliminates the chain of command Has limitless spans of control Uses empowered teams rather than departments Eliminates external boundaries: Uses virtual, network, and modular organizational structures to get closer to stakeholders. 9–26

T ODAY ’ S O RGANIZATIONAL D ESIGN C HALLENGES Keeping Employees Connected Widely dispersed and mobile employees Building a Learning Organization Managing Global Structural Issues Cultural implications of design elements 9–27

O RGANIZATIONAL D ESIGNS ( CONT ’ D ) The Learning Organization An organization that has developed the capacity to continuously learn, adapt, and change through the practice of knowledge management by employees. Characteristics of a learning organization: An open team-based organization design that empowers employees Extensive and open information sharing Leadership that provides a shared vision of the organization’s future. A strong culture of shared values, trust, openness, and a sense of community. 9–28
