Document Summary
The building blocks of organizational structure: there are two basic building blocks of a business organization: specialization and departmentalization. In a small organization, the owner/one person may be responsible for every single task, but larger businesses have job specialization. If the subordinate does not perform tasks properly, there will be punishment and maybe also dismissal. Make sure the person chose understands the objective. Make sure the subordinates have time and training to complete task: but managers of small businesses may have trouble delegating because: They feel that employees can never do anything better than them. They fear something will go wrong if they give the task to someone else. They lack time to do long range planning. They think that the subordinates don"t know how to do the job. They think the subordinate will prove to be better than the manager. They want to keep control over what is done.
