Functional Structure
Functional structure is set up so that each
portion of the organization is grouped
according to its purpose. In this type of
organization, for example, there may be a
marketing department, a sales department
and a production department. The functional
structure works very well for small businesses
in which each department can rely on the
talent and knowledge of its workers and
support itself. However, one of the drawbacks
to a functional structure is that the
coordination and communication between
departments can be restricted by the
organizational boundaries of having the
various departments working separately.
Divisional Structure
Divisional structure typically is used in larger
companies that operate in a wide geographic
area or that have separate smaller
organizations within the umbrella group to
cover different types of products or market
areas. For example, the now-defunct
Culture of organizations
Work culture is a topic that many of us are
familiar with, mostly because we work and we
more often than not do this with other people.
The type of organization, the staff, the
principles, policies and values of the work
place all make organizational culture what it
is. So what type of work culture do you work
in? What type works better than others? There
is a large variety of organizational cultures
that materialize in different environments;
7.Process Culture
This type of office culture provides a set of
regulations and procedures that the
employees follow. Its different than the
normative culture as the regulations are not a
bullet-pointed list of dos and donts so much
as it is an ideology that the employees adhere
to. Employees know what they are getting
into when they sign-up and are often selfstarters.
4.Bet Your Company Culture
This culture is for the patient risk-takers.
Organizations that follow this culture are
known to literally bet the success or failure of
their company on single decisions of which
the outcome is completely unknown. It can be
a wild ride working for this type of company
as you dont know what each day is going to
bring. The consequences of the decisions
made by the individuals working in the betyour-company culture can be so dire that the
company goes under; contrarily, they can be
so excellent that the company thrives more
than ever before.
Organizational climate
What is Organizational Climate?
Organizational culture is a system of
shared assumptions, values and beliefs that
governs how people behave in organizations.
The culture of an organization provides
boundaries and guidelines that help members
of the organization know the correct way to
perform their jobs.
The culture of an organization is ingrained in
the behavior of the members of an
organization and is very difficult to change.
For this reason, culture can be thought of as
the 'personality' of the organization. The
unique culture of an organization creates a
distinct atmosphere that is felt by the people
who are part of the group, and this
atmosphere is known as the climate of an
organization. We define organizational
climate as how members of an organization
experience the culture of an organization.
Avoiding blame
Buffing: This term was coined to describe the
practice of rigorously documenting
activity or fabricating documents to project an
image of competence and thoroughness. It is widely referred to as covering
your ass.
Playing safe: Situations that may reflect
unfavourably on a person are avoided.
Justifying: Responsibility for a certain
event is minimized by acknowledging
partial responsibility and including some
expression of remorse.
Scapegoating: Blame is deflected to
others.
