I. Departmentalization
Copy/Paste or diagram the top levels of the organizational chart, based on the available information.
Many large organizations are hybrids, but they still emphasize one pure type more than others. Does the organizational chart represent a predominantly functional, divisionalized, or matrix structure? If a divisionalized form is emphasized, does it focus on clients, products, or geography?
If a matrix structure is used, which functional units are involved?
Does the organization make much use of the network structure? If so, what aspects of the organization’s activities are contracted out?
II. Span of Control
Is this a tall or flat organization? How many hierarchical levels does it seem to have?
III. Centralization
In general, does this organization have centralized or decentralized decision-making?
To what extent do non-management employees participate in organizational decisions?
IV. Formalization
Does this organization make extensive use of rules and procedures to organize and coordinate work activities? If so, provide examples.
Do non-management employees have much discretion over their work or do they act mainly on programmed decisions?
