Tips for the assignment:
- For Q1: there is some helpful material about mission statements on p. 56f.
- For Q2: describe specific job duties which have to be done to achieve the mission of the organisation, such as customer service: taking money, making change, offering online services, handling complaints and refunds etc. Then tie the jobs required with the type of positions you create in the organisation chart. Be as specific as possible about the type of work to be done for each position in Q2. Being very clear about the nature of the jobs to be done in Q2 will help greatly in the kind of organisation charts you design in Qs 3-6
