Designing Organization Structure

Identification of activities

 
In designing the structure, managers must identify the various necessary activities that should be performed in order to achieve the organizational objectives. While identifying the various activities, the deductive method is followed which suggests that in order to achieve a particular goal, which steps and functions should be undertaken. The major activities are classified into a number of sub-activities. While classifying and reclassifying the activities, it should be borne in mind that

1. All the necessary activities are performed.

2. There is no unnecessary duplication in performing various necessary activities.

3. The various activities are performed in a synchronized or coordinated way.

Grouping of Activities


Closely related and similar activities are grouped together to form departments, divisions, or sections because coordination of numerous activities can best be achieved by grouping them into basic and derivative departments. Grouping may be done on several bases depending upon the situational requirements. Grouped activities in the form of departments, divisions or sections are assigned to various positions. These positions are occupied by various individuals.

Prescribing Authority Relationships


Since organizing process creates various departments and positions therein, authority relationships have to be prescribed for orderly functioning of various departments. These relationships have to be prescribed for various positions in a department. Such relationships may be in the form of line, staff or functional authority relationships.
