identifiable boundary that functions on a relatively continuous
basis to achieve a common goal or set of goals.

ORGANIZATIONAL CHART
An illustration in the form of a chart which represents the
organizational structure. The mechanical means of depicting
the organizational structure.
A graphic view of the organization’s general structure
of work and work relationships.
Line and Staff – implies that a system of varied functions arrange into a workable
pattern. The line organization is responsible for the direct accomplishment of
the objectives while the staff is responsible for support, advisory or
facilitative capacity.
Principle of Parity and Responsibility – explains that responsibility for action cannot
be greater than that implied by the authority delegated nor should it be less.
Authority Level Principle – implies that decisions within the authority of the individual
commander should be made by them and not be returned upward in the organizational
structure.
Principle of Flexibility – means that the more flexible the organization, the more it can
fulfill its purpose.
ELEMENTS OF ORGANIZATION
1) UNITY OF COMMAND -dictates that there should only be ONE MAN commanding
the unit to ensure uniformity in the execution of orders.
2) SPAN OF CONTROL - the ability of one man to direct, coordinate, and control
immediate subordinates.
3) DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY -conferring of certain specified authority by a
superior to a subordinate.
4) HIERARCHY OF AUTHORITY -the relationship between superiors and
subordinates .It can be visualized as a ladder, with each rung (or rank) representing a
higher or lower level of authority.
Authority is the right to command and control the behavior of employees
in lower positions within an organizational hierarchy. A hierarchy thus serves as the
framework for the flow of authority downward (and obedience upward) through the
department.
5) SPECIALIZATION -the assignment of particular personnel to particular tasks which
are highly technical and require special skills and training.
6) CHAIN OF COMMAND -the arrangement of officers from top to bottom on the
basis of rank or position and authority.
7) COMMAND RESPONSIBILITY -dictates that immediate commanders shall be
responsible for the effective supervision and control of their personnel and unit .
ORGANIZATIONAL UNITS
FUNCTIONAL UNITS:
1. Bureau - the largest organic functional unit within a large
department. It comprises of numbers of divisions.
2. Division - a primary subdivision of a bureau.
3. Section -functional unit within a division that is necessary
for specialization.
4. Unit -functional group within a section; or the smallest
functional group within an organization.
TERRITORIAL UNITS:
Planning – working out in broad outline the things that need to be done and the
methods for doing them to accomplish the purpose set for the enterprise. Process
of selecting goals and determining how to achieve them.
Organizing – establishment of the formal structure of authority through which
work subdivisions are arranged, defined, and coordinated for the define
objective. Involves determination and allocation of the men and women as well
as the resource of an organization to achieve pre-determined goals or objectives
of the organization.
Staffing – personnel function of bringing in and out training the
staff and maintaining the staff the favorable conditions of work.
Filling the organization with the right people and right
position. The task of providing competent men to do the job
and choosing the right men for the right job
The three primary areas in the development of the classical approach are:
He studied the effect of social change in Europe at the end of the 19th
Century and coined the term BUREAUCRACY to identify the complex
organizations that operated on a rational basis.
BUREAUCRACY
Proposes that all business task must be be divided among the
employees. The basis for the division of task should be competencies
and functional specialization.
Safety needs- Safety needs include physical, environmental and emotional safety and
protection. For instance- Job security, financial security, protection from animals,
family security, health security, etc
Social needs- Social needs include the need for love, affection, care, belongingness,
and friendship.
Esteem needs- Esteem needs are of two types: internal esteem needs (self- respect,
confidence, competence, achievement and freedom) and external esteem needs
(recognition, power, status, attention and admiration).
Self-actualization need- This include the urge to become what you are capable of
becoming/what you have the potential to become. It includes the need for growth
and self-contentment. It also includes desire for gaining more knowledge, social-
service, creativity and being aesthetic. The self- actualization needs are never fully
satiable. As an individual grows psychologically, opportunities keep cropping up to
continue growing.
IMPLICATIONS OF MASLOW’S
HIERARCHY OF NEEDS THEORY FOR
MANAGERS
As far as the physiological needs are concerned, the managers
should give employees appropriate salaries to purchase the
basic necessities of life. Breaks and eating opportunities should
be given to employees.
According to Aldefer:
Need for Affiliation – the desire to establish and maintain friendly and
warm relations with others
Need for Power – the desire to control others, to influence their behavior,
or to be responsible for others.
D.MCGREGOR (MCGREGOR’S THEORY X AND Y)
Theory X assumes that people have little ambition, dislike work, and
must be coerced in order to perform satisfactorily.
Theory Y assumes that people do not inherently dislike work and if
properly rewarded, especially satisfying esteem and self actualization
needs, will perform well on the job.
Theory X works on the idea of punishing people to keep the work going,
while under theory Y, promotions, rewards, and recognition play an
important part.
CONTEMPORARY APPROACH
This is the movement towards quality management. Theorists have incorporated the influences of
the behavioral science and other earlier school of thoughts.
The System Theory - It simply means that all parts of a system are interrelated and interdependent to
form the whole. A system is composed of elements or subsystems that are related and dependent
upon one another. When these subsystems are in interaction with one another, they form a unitary
whole
The Contingency Theory – This approach recognizes that many internal and external environmental
variables affect organizational behavior. In this case, there is no best way for structuring and
managing diverse types of organizations. So the underlying theme of this theory is that it all
depends on a particular situation. The task of managers then is to determine in which situations
and at what times certain methods or techniques are the most effective. In this way, the
approach is more pragmatic although it encompasses relevant concepts of both classical and
behavioral theories.
Theory Z and Quality Management - Important emerging perspectives include Theory Z and Quality
Management, focused on the Japanese management practices. The emergence of Total Quality
Management (TQM) practices – a customer oriented approach and emphasizes on both human
resources and quantitative methods in an attempt to strive towards continuous improvement.
