Document Summary

Two components of organizational design: structure and culture. Structure- network of formally sanctioned and durable arrangements and relationships among people in an organization. Specialization- how defined roles are (degree to which activities are each performed by individuals with that function and no other) Easier recruiting and training, higher individual quality. Departmentalization- degree to which tasks of an organization are divided up and officially assigned to different members or units. Poor departmental monitoring, horizontal communication, goal displacement, conflict across departments. Functional structure - specialists are grouped together. Divisional structure - you"re grouping by outputs (ex. Matrix structure- combination form (two bosses supervising each worker, linking specialties and outputs) In the end, greater differentiation will always require greater integration. Integration- the degree to which various tasks are linked in order to achieve the organization"s overall mission. Formalization (creating more rules), easy and straightforward. Administrative intensity (scope and degree of involvement of management in organizational tasks)
