Описание слайда:
Organisation Structure
Organisation structure describes the way work is
divided, supervised and coordinated.
Слайд 4
Описание слайда:
Organisation Charts
Organisation structure is often represented by an
organisation chart – i.e. a chart showing the main
departments and work positions in the organisation
and the reporting relations between them.

Formal structure:
The official structure of the organisation.
The official guidelines, documents or procedures setting out how the organisation’s activities are divided, supervised and coordinated.
Слайд 8
Описание слайда:
Types of structure
Informal structure:
The unofficial, but often critical, working relationships between organisational members.
If this could be drawn, it would show who talks to and interacts regularly with whom regardless of their formal titles and relationships.

The Basic Elements of Structure
1. Work specialisation
2. Chain of command
3. Span of control
4. Centralisation vs Decentralisation
5. Departmentalisation
Слайд 10
Описание слайда:
Work Specialisation
a job is broken down into a number of steps and each step is completed by a separate individual
different employees have different skills
need to make efficient use of the diversity of skills that employees have
Слайд 11
Описание слайда:
Negative results of work specialisation
Слайд 12
Описание слайда:
Chain of Command
The continuous chain of authority that extends
from the highest levels in an organisation to the
lowest levels and clarifies who reports to whom.
Слайд 13
Описание слайда:
Chain of Command
Early management writers believed that each
employee should report to only one manager –
a term called unity of command.
Слайд 14
Описание слайда:
Chain of Command
Some concepts closely related to chain of command:
Authority
Responsibility
Accountability
Delegation
Слайд 15
Описание слайда:
Authority
The right that a person in a specified role has to make
decisions, allocate resources or give instructions.
If managers attempt to give instructions beyond their
area of formal authority, they are likely to meet
resistance.
Слайд 16
Описание слайда:
Responsibility
An employee’s duty to perform assigned activities
and to meet the expectations associated with a
task.
Слайд 17
Описание слайда:
Accountability
Employees with formal authority over an area are
required to report on their work to those above
them in the chain of command.
Слайд 18
Описание слайда:
Delegation
Managers giving people who are below them in
the chain of command the authority to undertake
specific activities or decisions.
Слайд 19
Описание слайда:
Authority vs Power

Слайд 20
Описание слайда:
Span of Control
The number of persons (subordinates) directly
reporting to a manager.
The right number must be found in order for these people to be managed effectively and efficiently.
Слайд 21
Описание слайда:
Span of Control
The level of direct supervision an employee needs
decreases with the level of experience they have and
training they receive.
Слайд 22
Описание слайда:
Span of Control
Слайд 23
Описание слайда:
Centralisation vs Decentralisation
Centralised organisations: decisions are made
by a few people at the centre of the organisation.
Decentralised organisations: decisions are pushed
down to the level closest to where the problem is.
Слайд 24
Описание слайда:
Departmentalisation
refers to how the various activities of the organisation are grouped together into units
a manager is in charge of each unit
Слайд 25
Описание слайда:
e.g. Functional Departmentalisation
Слайд 26
Описание слайда:
Types of Structure
Mechanistic structure
Organic structure
(Burns & Stalker, 1961)
Слайд 27
Описание слайда:
Mechanistic Structure
High in specialisation.
High in centralisation.
High in formalisation (i.e. the practice of using written documents to direct and control employees).
Communication is vertical.
Слайд 28
Описание слайда:
Organic Structure
Knowledge is widely spread.
There are few prescriptive job descriptions and rules and regulations are kept to a minimum.
Cross-functional team work is encouraged.
Communication is horizontal.
Слайд 29
Описание слайда:
Types of structure
One of the these two types of structure is frequently
called a ‘bureaucracy’. Which one is it?
Слайд 30
Описание слайда:
Types of structure
Mechanistic structure:
Rigid and stable.
Organic structure:
Flexible and highly adaptive.
Слайд 31
Описание слайда:
Types of structure
Mechanistic structure:
Best at simple and repetitive tasks.
Organic structure:
More effective at complex and unique tasks.
Слайд 32
Описание слайда:
Types of structure
Mechanistic structures are most effective in stable
environments.
Organic structures are most effective in dynamic
and uncertain environments.
Слайд 33
Описание слайда:
Types of structure
Organisations could use a combination of the
two types.
e.g. finance department – mechanistic
advertising department – organic
Слайд 34
Описание слайда:
Group Work
Produce an organisation chart that, to the best of your
knowledge, represents the structure of the University of
Nicosia. Use an exclamation mark for departments or
units that you know with certainty that they exist (such
as academic affairs or finance). Use a question mark for
those that you think might be part of this organisation.
You should produce separate charts for the academic
and administrative structures of the institution.

Chapter One Company Structure • Organizational structure specifies the firm’s formal reporting relationships, procedures, controls, authority and decision-making processes.
Compare & Contrast • Characteristics • Advantages • Disadvantages • • Simple Functional Multidivisional Matrix
Organizational Circle: Moving back to flat • The flat structure is common in enterprenerial start-ups, university spin offs or small companies in general. As the company grows, however, it becomes more complex and hierarchical, which leads to an expanded structure, with more levels and departments. ØStarbucks ØProcter & Gamble ØToyota ØUnilever
Team Structure Ø One of the newest organizational structures developed in the 20 th century is team. In small businesses, the team structure can define the entire organization. • formed at the beginning of product development process and continued throughout implementation • speeds innovation and customer responsiveness • stronger in highly dynamic industries ü Whole Foods Market ü Xerox ü Motorola ü Daimler. Chrysler
Network Structure Ø Another modern structure is network. While business giants risk becoming too clumsy to proact, act and react efficiently, the new network organisations contract out any business function, that can be done better or more cheaply. • Core group of experts manages the outsourcing process closely • This forms a hub & spoke type of organization consisting of many contracts • Could create a control problem with contract organizations Ø H&M
.
Boundaryless structure Ø The most radical concept in today’s organisational design is the concept of ‘boundarylessness’, which seeks to overcome traditional boundaries between layers of management (vertical), functional areas (horizontal), as well as geographic boundaries. Some claim the boundaryless structure is a combination of team and network structures, with the addition of temporariness. ü Ikea
Virtual Structure Ø A special form of boundaryless organisation is virtual. It works in a network of external alliances, using the Internet. This means while the core of the organisation can be small but still the company can operate globally be a market leader in its niche. According to Anderson, because of the unlimited shelf space of the Web, the cost of creahing niche goods is falling dramatically. Although none sell in huge numbers, there are so many niche products that collectively they make a significant profit, and that is what made highly innovative Amazon. com so successful. ü Amazon. com
Organizational Structure Slides 14 -23 Extensive Reading Material • Building blocks of organizational structure are: – Differentiation — allocation of people to tasks • vertical — distribution of decision-making (levels) • horizontal — distribution of functions – Integration — coordination between people or functions or divisions or companies. – Differentiation + Integration = Bureaucratic Costs (time spent in meetings, # of managers)
• Vertical differentiation: • Reporting relationships that link people, tasks and functions – appropriate # of levels – appropriate span of control – determines if a structure is flat or tall • Tall structures – impede communication & coordination – raise bureaucratic costs – distort information (intentional & non-intentional) – decreases motivation – too many middle managers (structure begets structure)
• Vertical differentiation: – Centralization: – easier coordination of activities – decisions fit organizational strategy – speedy decision making – Decentralization: – reduces overload for TMT (can focus on strategy) – ee motivation & accountability increase – fewer managers are needed — flatter structure
Organizational Structure • Horizontal differentiation – The degree to which you separate tasks or skills in the organization (specialization or functionalization). • Many organizational forms: Functional Mechanistic Multi-Divisional Matrix Team Network ? Organic
Mechanistic vs. Organic Feature Task Definition Mechanistic Rigid and highly specialized Coordination and Rules and directives vertically Control imposed Communication Knowledge Flexible and less narrowly defined Mutual adjustment, common culture Vertical and horizontal Centralized Dispersed Commitment and To immediate supervisor Loyalty Environmental Context Organic Stable with low technological uncertainty To the organization and its goals Unstable with significant technological uncertainty and ambiguity
• Common success criteria for organizational structures are: – Decentralized reporting – Flat hierarchy – High transient speed – High transparency – Permanent monitoring – Rapid response – Shared reliability

Part II Reading: Time for the big small company
– big small company – … the dream is to marry the control of an established company with the responsiveness of a start-up. – Operating processes define how a company produces, sells, distributes and supports its products and services. (para. 2) – Management processes in such companies are also hampered by the time it takes to recognize that change is needed. (para. 3) – IT co-ordinates complex fast-cycle operating processes and, more importantly, gives decisionmakers quick access to detailed, real-time information about operations and market performance. (para. 5)
– Management processes in such companies are also hampered by the time it takes to recognize that change is needed. (para. 3) – IT co-ordinates complex fast-cycle operating processes and, more importantly, gives decision -makers quick access to detailed, real-time information about operations and market performance. (para. 5)
• Questions – What are the advantages and disadvantages of each company structure?
Hierarchical structure • Advantages – High level of control • Disadvantages – Workers lack the authority and motivation to improve process. – Management’s response time is slow. – Only suitable for stable business environment.
Entrepreneurial structure • Advantages – Totally centralized authority and direct control between owner and employees ensure responsiveness to external changes. • Disadvantages – Only suitable for small companies
Information age structure • Advantages – Allows speed of response within a large complex structure. Retains control but gives quick access to information. – Employees can constantly refine their actions and strategies. – Organization control is dynamic. • Disadvantages – Although IT makes all these advantages possible, it cannot motivate people to use the information they have.
Vocabulary • • • Hierarchical company • Channels of communication • Nimble • Responsiveness • Budgeting • Standardization • Hamper • Entrepreneurial organization • Flexibility • Real-time • Refine • Agility • 金字塔结构公司 沟通渠道 灵活的 快速应变 预算 规范化 妨碍 创业机构 灵活性 实时的 优化 敏捷
Questions for next calss • Why do companies want to go public? • Why do ordinary people buy stocks and securities? • What are indicators of stock market?

2. Types of organizational structures
• Functional structure (traditional chain of
command)
• Product lines (divisions)
• Geographic structure (country managers)
• Matrix structure (project teams)
3. Restructuring strategies
Delayering process
Centralisation
Outsourcing
Downsizing (layoff)
Starburst
Business Process Reengineering
Virtualization
4. Downsizing
This restructuring strategy is about reducing the
manpower to keep employee costs under
control.
Downsizing is not always a result of business
losses; it may be needed even in cases of
takeovers or acquisitions and mergers.
5. British airways
is the largest airline of UK
supported by 50,000 employees, a level of
staffing was oversized.
At the time of the oil crises (1970s) its huge
staff resulted in massive financial losses.
The company soon developed a reputation for
terrible service as a result.
The new chairperson Lord King decided to
restructure the entire organization by reducing
its workforce from 59,000 to 39,000
6.
What is important is that before King began
announcing layoffs, he explained his reasons
for the restructuring to the entire company to
prepare them for the upcoming change.
Otherwise the company could have experienced
negative press around all the layoffs.
7. Starburst
This restructuring strategy involves breaking
a company into smaller independent
business units for increasing flexibility and
productivity.
8. Google splits up under the Alphabet umbrella
Google as a company grew monstrously
diverse.
So Google was broken up into its constituent
parts, making each one its own company, with
all of them owned by a new umbrella
corporation called Alphabet.
9.
10. Business process reengineering
• This type of restructuring is carried out for
making operational improvements. It begins
with identifying how things are being done
currently and then it moves on to reengineering the tasks to improve productivity.
• Business process re-engineering usually results
in changing roles.
• It may lead to layoffs, and can also create new
employment opportunities.
11.
When Ford Motor was trying to reduce its
cost, it found that the process at its financial
department needed to be re-engineered.
75% of the staff from this department was laid
off
The reengineering helped in simplifying the
controls and maintaining the financial
information more accurately
12.
The strategy involves pushing employees
outside the office to places where they are
more needed like at the client’s site.
It also involves upgrading to technology,
which allows virtual offices to be set up.
For example, the ATMs offered by banks are
their virtual units.
13.
Large organizations tend to follow routine,
gain “organizational fat” and play the
same game that made them successful in
the past
