Discusses the organizational structure of a business

(SPTVE_MENT9-AMOF-IIe-8)

II. Background Information for Learners

This learning activity sheet covers concepts and principles in

assessing management and organizational functions of a business. The
lesson will enable you to discuss the organizational structure of a
business.
Organizing involves identifying the specific activities necessary to achieve the enterprise
goals, clustering the activities into departments or job positions, and designating the
personnel to head and compose each department. In planning for the organizational
structure of your planned business, be acquainted of the following terms:

Line organization is a type of organization which is characterized by a superior

having direct command over workers to accomplish the task.
Line and staff organization is a type of organization where line officers have
staffs who assist them but who do not have any authority over line personnel.
Organization chart is a diagram that shows the organizational relationships of
the positions and their corresponding authority, responsibility, and accountability.
Responsibility is the duty that one has to fulfill in connection with the
performance of the job.

An example of the organizing function is the owner-manager of a small factory

who establishes three departments - production department, sales department,
and administrative department. He assigns manager to head each department
and clearly delineates responsibilities among them. Thus, he gives the
production manager the responsibility for manufacturing, packing, and
shipping, while he delegates to the sales manager the responsibility for

advertising and costumer service. Then he assigns the administrative head to
look after personnel, purchasing, and accounting.
Below is the diagram showing the organizational relationships of the positions
and their corresponding authority, responsibility, and accountability.
A. LINE ORGANIZATION
The manager has direct command over workers who accomplish the tasks.
Below is an example of a line organization

 LINE AND STAFF ORGANIZATION
Any activities that a line officer can not do are delegated to a staff officer to render
these services. For example, in a small manufacturing enterprise, the president,
production manager, and sales manager perform line functions, while legal counsel
who helps and advices the president has no authority over line employee. Below is
an example of this type.

C. FUNCTIONAL STAFF ORGANIZATION

In this setup, the worker has more than one immediate superior or as many as the
types of activities assigned to him. An example of this type is shown below.
