INTRODUCTION
Once decisions regarding corporate strategies are made, an effective structure must be put in place to allow achievement of those goals
When managers develop or change the organization’s structure, they are engaging in organization design.
Decisions must be made about how specialized jobs should be allocated, the rules to guide employee’s behaviours, and at what level decisions are to be made.

Organization design decisions are usually made by senior managers.
Organization design applies to any type of organization.
It is important to understand the process so we understand why we are grouped as we are.

Centralization vs. Decentralization
![Page 7: Basic Organization Designs BSM 12. ORGANIZING The function of management that creates the organization’s structure.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649f185503460f94c2f2f4/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
1. Work specialization jobs are broken down into a number of
steps and each step is completed by a separate individual• example: one person installs only
motherboards and/or hard disk drives in a computer assembly line
advantage: efficient use of diversity of skills that workers have
disadvantage: division of labour may cause boredom, fatigue or stress leading to low production, poor work quality, increased absenteeism and high staff turnover

3. Span of control refers to the number of subordinates a
manager can direct efficiently and effectively
Factors that will influence how many:• level of management: top managers need a
smaller span than middle, etc.• the more training and experience employees
have, the less direct supervision they require• similarity of tasks, difficulty of tasks, how
close employees are physically, degree of standardization
![Page 10: Basic Organization Designs BSM 12. ORGANIZING The function of management that creates the organization’s structure.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649f185503460f94c2f2f4/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
4. Authority and responsibility
an obligation to perform assigned duties
no one should be held responsible for something over which he/she has no authority
the rights, that come with a managerial position, to give orders and expect them to be obeyed
related to one’s position--not the characteristics of the individual manager
![Page 11: Basic Organization Designs BSM 12. ORGANIZING The function of management that creates the organization’s structure.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649f185503460f94c2f2f4/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Two forms of authority Line authority: the level of
authority that entitles a manager to direct the work of an employee • A line manager directs the work of
employees and makes certain decisions without consulting anyone
Staff authority: positions created to assist, support, and advise those holders of line authority

Authority vs Power
A right based on a position in an organization
An individual’s capacity to influence decisions
![Page 14: Basic Organization Designs BSM 12. ORGANIZING The function of management that creates the organization’s structure.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649f185503460f94c2f2f4/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Example:
Administrative assistants (secretaries) are powerful in a company even though they have little authority. How and why?
![Page 15: Basic Organization Designs BSM 12. ORGANIZING The function of management that creates the organization’s structure.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649f185503460f94c2f2f4/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
How and why?
They are gatekeepers for bosses and can influence who bosses see and when.
They are relied up to pass information on to bosses and can control what they hear.

Five sources of power1. Coercive power– based on fear2. Reward power– based on the ability to
distribute anything others may value3. Legitimate power – based on one’s
position in the formal hierarchy4. Expert power – based on one’s special
skills or knowledge5. Referent power – based on
identification with a person who has desirable resources or personal traits

5. Centralization vs decentralization
Centralization is a function of how much decision-making authority is pushed down to lower levels in an organization. The more centralized an organization is, the higher is the level at which decisions are made.
Decentralization is the pushing down of decision-making authority to the lowest levels of an organization

Contemporary View Most large organizations continue to use
most or all of the departmental groups• Example: Black and Decker
• Divisions are organized around function• Manufacturing around processes• Sales around geographic• Sales regions around customer groupings
80% of big firms are using teams There is no single ideal organization
structure
