Lesson 2: Question 1.
Describe the external environment, primary tasks, size and technology of an organization that you (or someone you know) have been a member of (now or in the past). As best you can, describe this organization's overall design and the design of its subunits (i.e., its departments, divisions, etc.) in terms of the "organic" and "mechanistic" concepts. Evaluate the appropriateness of its design in relation to the contingency factors identified above. That is, to what extent does the design "fit" its external environment, primary tasks, size, and technology? If the fit is not very good, how would you re-design the organization differently? How is the design affecting performance?
