摘要:Organizational Structure includes a firm’s formal role configuration, procedures, governance, and control mechanisms, and authority and decision-making processes. The simple structure is an organizational form in which the owner-manager makes all major decisions directly and monitors all activities, while the staff serves as an extension of the manager’s supervisory authority. Organizational structure is the manner in which an organization divides its labor into specific tasks and achieves coordination among these tasks. It broadly refers to how the organization’s individuals and groups are put together or organized to accomplish work. Organizational structure intervenes between goals and organizational accomplishments and thus influences organizational effectiveness. Structure affects how effectively and efficiently group effort is coordinated. To achieve its goals, an organization has to divide labor among its members and then coordinate what has been divided.
