Organizational Structure

The organizational structure exhibited by the company is hierarchical organizational

structure. Hierarchical organizational structure is one of the common organizational structure

exhibited by most institutions in the world today. The structure presents a pyramid shaped

institutional chart whereby the line of authority or command commence from the top, (president)

and goes down to low level employees. In other words, the chart related to this organizational

structure present positions with the highest responsibility like the president on the top and goes

down to the positions with lowest responsibility such as the entry-level employees at the bottom

(Soderstrom and Klaus 227). Indeed, the workforce are well-organized concerning their specified

skills and their distinct profession in the institution and every staff has a supervisor.

Primarily, hierarchical organizational structure exhibits different impacts to the

employee’s behavior and conduct. First, the structure dictates levels of power and responsibility

making the employees to exhibit a defined personal resilience and act of conduct towards the

positions high in the chain of command. That is to say, the structures dictates a determined form

of conduct towards every staff in the institution. Second, the structure set down the channels of

communications allowing the employees to exhibit a clear and well-organized communication

behavior (Soderstrom and Klaus 227). Moreover, the structure proffer every employees with a

specialty; hence, inspiring the workforce with determined career paths, professionalism and

respect to the organization stakeholders like customers and shareholders. The employees exhibit

passive aggression and handle situations carefully and effectively to effectuate their career

development opportunities.

The changes to the organizational culture emanated by the new president might impact

the workforce behavior. Development of candor behavior where the employees avoid candid

expression of their feelings and thoughts slowing innovation and creativity. The change in the

organizational culture set up a resistance to change behavior among employees allowing the

workforce to act in interest of the president in place of the institution. Therefore, the organization

need to establish a shared value and invest in diversity and belonging to maintain their market

position.
