Chain of Command It is the line of authority extending from upper organizational levels to lower levels and clarifies who reports to whom. Three components decides the chain of command:- 1. Authority 2. Responsibility 3. Unity of Command
22
Span of Control It suggests the number of employees that a manager can efficiently manage. Determines the number of levels in an organization Traditional view suggests that a manager can not directly supervise more than five or six subordinates. In recent trend the consideration is given to larger span for:- Speedy managerial Decision making, increase flexibility, get closer to employees, empower employees and reduce costs.
23
Centralization & Decentralization Centralization is the extent to which the decision making takes place at the upper levels of the Organization. According to Allen, “Decentralization refers to the systematic effort to delegate to the lowest level of authority except that which can be controlled and exercised at central points”. Factors which can affect managements decision to centralize or decentralize are:- 1.Cost of decisions 2.Uniformity of Policy 3.Competency Levels 4.Control Mechanisms and 5.Environmental Influences.
24
Formalization/Standardization Formalization refers to how standardized an organization’s jobs are and the extent to which employee behavior is guided by rules and procedures. Firms with strong formalization rely on the chain of command for decision making, communication and control. Although some formalization is necessary for the consistency and control, many organizations, at present, rely less on strict rules and standardization to guide or regulate employee behavior.
