There are two structures: tall: many levels of management and a narrow span of control, which refers to the number of employees each supervisor is responsible for. This structure allows for close supervisions of employees: flat: ca be beneficially for an organization because of its flexibility and the ability to adapt to change. This structure has fewer management levels, and a broader span of control: sporting events require multiple organizations that have different organizational charts. Often organizational charts for an event are broken into functions: operations, competition, guest services. It helps companies to operate in a more efficient manger. These leaders are often charismatic: meeting management, poorly planned meeting negatively affect implementation of a sporting event.
