Organisation is the detailed arrangement of work and working conditions in order to perform the assigned activities in an effective manner.

An identified group of people contributing their efforts towards the attainment of goals is called an organisation

- Mc Farland
"Organisation is the process of identifying and grouping of the works to be performed, defining and delegating responsibility and authority and establishing relationships for the purpose of enabling people to work most efficiently"

- Louis A. Allen

Organising helps Organisations to reap the benefit of specialization. Organising provides for Optimum utilization of resources. Organising helps in Effective administration. Organising channels for Expansion and growth. Organising achieves co-ordination among different departments. Organising creates scope for new change.

Principle of Functional Definition

According to this principle, all the functions in a concern should be completely and clearly defined to the managers and subordinates. This can be done by clearly defining the duties, responsibilities, authority and relationships of people towards each other.

Principle of Specialization

According to the principle, the whole work of a concern should be divided amongst the subordinates on the basis of qualifications, abilities and skills. It is through division of work specialization can be achieved which results in effective organization.

Principles of Span of Control/Supervision

According to this principle, span of control is a span of supervision which depicts the number of employees that can be handled and controlled effectively by a single manager

Principle of Scalar Chain

Scalar chain is a chain of command or authority which flows from top to bottom. With a chain of authority available, wastages of resources are minimized, communication is affected, overlapping of work is avoided and easy organization takes place.

Principle of Unity of Command

It implies one subordinate-one superior relationship. Every subordinate is answerable and accountable to one boss at one time.

Formal Organization
Consciously created to achieve organizational objectives Formal relations are well planned and are created deliberately Follows official chain of command Follows a rigid structure of relationships Prescribed pattern of behavior for its members

Informal Organization
Has no predetermined objectives Relations are unplanned Does not have a fixed chain of command Life of informal groups is short Informal authority is personal Loosely structured and is highly flexible

Identification of activities - All the activities which have to be performed in a concern have to be identified first Departmentally organizing the activities - In this step, the manager tries to combine and group similar and related activities into units or departments Classifying the authority - Once the departments are made, the manager likes to classify the powers and its extent to the managers.

Co-ordination between authority and responsibility Relationships are established among various groups to enable smooth interaction toward the achievement of the organizational goal.

Organisation structure is the pattern of relationships among various components or parts of the organisation which prescribes the relations among various activities and positions. An effective structure will result in increased profitability of the enterprise. whenever an enterprise grows in size or complexity it needs an adequate organisation structure.

Line Organisation Structure: Hierarchy derived from a scalar process. Organisation is quite simple in understanding and implementation. this does not offer scope for specialization. Line and Staff Organisation Structure: Staff personnel generally specialists in their fields advice line managers to perform their duties. Staff personnel have right to recommend, but have no authority. Functional Organisation: Grouping of activities on the basis of functions required for the achievement of ultimate objectives. Divisional Organisation Structure: Several fairly selfcontained autonomous units were created. Each unit was headed by a manager and is directly accountable to the organisation.

It consists of an uninterrupted series of authority steps and forms a hierarchical arrangement. It not only becomes the avenue of command to operating personnel but also provides the channel of communication, coordination and accountability in enterprise.

Division of work: The first process of Organising includes identification and division of work which shall be done in accordance with the plans that are determined previously. Departmentation: once the work of identifying and dividing the work has been done those are similar are to be grouped. Linking departments: When the process of departmentation was completed, linking of departments has to be done so that those departments operate in a co-ordinated manner which gives a shape to overall organisation structure. Assigning Duties: On completion of departmentation process assigning duties i.e. defining authority and responsibility to the employees on the basis of their skills and capabilities has to be done, which in consequence magnifies efficiency with regard to their work. Defining hierarchal structure: Each employee should also know from whom he has to take orders and to whom he is accountable/responsible.
