Process for Creating an Organization’s Structure 1. Identify the critical activities needed to carry out the organization’s strategy 2. Understand the relationships between these activities (the degree of interdependence) 3. Group the activities into organizational units 4. Determine the degree of authority and independence of each of these units 5. Provide for coordination between the various units. Source: Thompson

Signs of Poor Organization Structure and Design 1. Poor forecasting 2. Not meeting customer needs 3. Higher than expected costs 4. Slow response to changes in the environment 5. Conflict between individuals and/or groups 6. Poor communication/coordination 7. Poor decision making—Decisions being made by the wrong people or at the wrong level in the hierarchy. Inadequate information to make good decisions.
