DESIGNING AN EFFECTIVE BUSINESS ORGANIZATION n Setting direction n Direction comes from mission statement (short, specific written statement of the reason a business exists and what it wants to achieve). n n n After mission statement, the business sets goals (precise statement of results the business expects to achieve). Goals are used to define what needs to be accomplished and to determine if the business is successful. n n EX: “to produce the top-rated brand for quality and customer satisfaction” Finally, the business sets policies and procedures for the organization n Chapter 5 Slide 23 EX: “To provide economy-and quality-minded travelers with a premier, moderate-priced lodging facility which is consistently perceived as clean, comfortable, well-maintained and attractive, staffed by friendly, attentive, and efficient people” Policies- guidelines used in making consistent decisions Procedures- descriptions of the way work is to be done. Effective policies and procedures provide guidance and direction to people working in the organization Introduction to Business © Thomson South-Western
Principles of Effective Organization n Responsibility, Authority, and Accountability n n n Responsibility is the obligation to complete specific work. Authority is the right to make decisions about how responsibilities should be accomplished. Accountability is taking responsibility for the results achieved. In an effective organization, all managers and employees have a set of responsibilities as a part of their jobs. With every job assignment, they know they have the authority to make the decisions and obtain resources needed to complete the assignment. They know they will be recognized and rewarded if they are successful AND/OR be held accountable if the work is not completed well. Chapter 5 Slide 24 Introduction to Business © Thomson South-Western
Principles of Effective Organization n Unity of Command n n There is a clear reporting relationship for all staff of a business. If there is confusion in assignments and unclear relationships among people who are working together, it will be hard for people to know what to do or where to go for help. For each work assignment, people need to know who is the leader and how decisions will be made. n Span Of Control n n n The number of employees who are assigned a particular work task and manager. Organizations need to make sure that workers have a balance of supervision and freedom to do their work. The span of control for well trained, experienced, and motivated employees can be much greater than for new and inexperienced employees who are not enthused about their work.

TYPES OF ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURES There needs to be an agreement on what work each person will do and if one person has authority over the work of others. Organization chart is a diagram that shows the structure of an organization, classifications of work and jobs, and the relationships among those classifications. n Functional organization structure n n n In this type of organizational structure, work is arranged within main business functions such as production, operations, marketing, and human resources. All of the people with jobs related to one of the functions will work together. They report to managers who are responsible for that function. Advantage- people work with others who have same work skills. Disadvantage- people become focused on their specific function than on the success of the whole business. n Matrix organizational structure n n Work is structured around specific projects, products, or customer groups. People with varied backgrounds are assigned together because their expertise is required for the project or to serve the customer. Advantage-interesting and motivating for employees; focused on task; work with many different people. Disadvantage- it can be confusing and inefficient without effective leadership and communication.
