The Organizational Environment
The quicker the environment changes,
the more problems face managers.
Structure must be more flexible (i.e.,
decentralized authority) when
environmental change is rapid.
107
Factors Affecting
Organizational Structure
Strategy
Different strategies require the use of
different structures.
A differentiation strategy needs a flexible
structure, low cost may need a more formal
structure.
Increased vertical integration or
diversification also requires a more flexible
structure.
108
Factors Affecting
Organizational Structure
Technology
The combination of skills, knowledge,
tools, equipment, computers and
machines used in the organization.
More complex technology makes it
harder for managers to regulate the
organization.
109
The Organizational
Environment
Human Resources
Highly skilled workers whose jobs
require working in teams usually need
a more flexible structure.
Higher skilled workers (e.g., CPAs and
doctors) often have internalized
professional norms and values.

Types of Control
59
Types of Controls
Feedforward (Preliminary) Controls
ensure that
objectives are clear
proper directions are established
right resources are available
Types of Controls
Concurrent (Steering) Controls
monitor ongoing operations to make
sure they are being done according
to plan
focus on quality of task activities
during work process
In Six Sigma quality control, we want
to monitor what is going on so well
that a few times in a million a
product/service is not correctly
accomplished.
61
Types of Controls
Feedback (Post action) Controls
take place after work is completed
focus on quality of end results
recently we also focus on speed
Quick Response is a strategy for
some companies.
62
Types of Controls
Internal Versus External Control
Internal
allows motivated individuals to exercise selfdiscipline in fulfilling job expectations. You get
the feedback before management has to correct
your work. Most people rather control
themselves and are not called out by
management
External
personal supervision
formal administrative systems (HRM discipline)
progressively sanctions increase
63
Approaches To Maintaining
Control
The
Step 1:
Set a standard, target, or goal.
Step 2:
Measure actual performance
against
standards (observation and
timing).
Step 3: Take corrective action.
The
Commitment-Based Control
Process
Encouraging all employees to exercise
ethical self-control (as they initiate process
improvements and new ways of
responding to customers needs.
