relationship between organizational theory, organizational design and organizational behaviour and how management can use them to maximize organizational effectiveness
...ement approach, which emerged at the beginning of the 20th century. Subsequent approaches in the 1930s. The focus was moved away from the division of labour and also centralised authority towards democratic organisations. The contingency view has made important pace in recognizing the contingency variables that are most important for formative the right structure. The political perspective emerged in the 1970s and builds on the knowledge of behavioural decision making and political science. Organisational theory must be divided into two groups of contemporary approaches. The first approach comes from an intellectual analysis of features of organisational operations. These are including organisational economics, institutional theory and gender in organisation. Critical theory and postmodernism creates a new concept, or basic set of assumptions. The second one is to improve their use of resource and make more efficient. Organisational Design Organizational design is a process for improving the probability that an organization will be successful. Organization Design is a formal, guided process for integrating the people, information and technology of an organisation. It is used to match the form of the organisation to the purpose the organisations find to achieve. Through the design process, organisations act to improve the probability that the collective efforts of members will be successful. Design is approached as an internal change under the guidance of an external facilitator. To optimize effectiveness, the form of organization must be matched to the purpose it seeks to achieve. Managers and members work together to define the needs of the organisation then create systems to meet those needs most effectively. Organisation design begins with the creation of a strategy, it’s a set of decision guidelines by which members will choose appropriate actions. The strategy is derived from clear, concise statements of purpose. Strategy unifies the intent of the organisation and focuses members toward actions designed to complete desired outcomes. To organize we must connect people with each other in meaningful and purposeful ways. We must connect people with the information and technology necessary for them to be successful. Organisational design is structuring an organisation, division or department to optimize how it supplies products and services to its clients and customers. Organisation structure defines the formal relationships among people and specifies both their roles and their responsibilities. Designing an organisational structure is dependent upon the kind and quality of information it gathers from its customers, suppliers and partners. How the company gathers the information. How it interacts with each of these constituents. How this information flows through the organisational structures. Who has access to it and who doesn't. How is the information helping make decisions. How the information is stored for ease of use and analyzed. Whether both the organisational processes and systems reflect and mirror information flow. The organisational design is bureaucracy. Characteristics of bureaucratic structures is authority and communication flow downward through a rigid chain of command. The vertical growth represents many levels of supervision and indicates a one person one boss, that’s unity of command. The number of people supervised is small, that’s span of control. Bureaucracy results in a line structure, it is a leader-follower relationship. This type of structure help large scale of administration by assign the work of many personnel. Simple structure consists of executive level management and the individuals responsible for the organisational work. A professional bureaucracy decentralized decision making and a well developed support staff. A divisional form is according by a number of independent divisions with one administration such as an integrated system. Organisational Behaviour The simple way to explain organisational behaviour is the study of people's behaviour within an oganisation. Organization behaviour is study what people think, feel and do in and around organizations. Organisation behaviour is important to financial analysts, marketing specialists, computer programmers and anyone else who works in and around organization. Organisations exist to achieve goals and someone has to define those goals and the means by which they can be achieved. This statement suggests that critical to the performance of an Organisations are people. People who conceptualize, people who implement, people who manage, people who monitor, people who do the work. Organisations are all about people. Despite all the modernization, in spite of all the technological advancements, people make an Organisation. Organisations with all the new technology being introduced making the job easier. Organisational behaviour is a field of study that investigates the impact that individuals, groups and structure have on behaviour within the organisation for the purpose of applying such knowledge towards improving an organisation’s effectiveness. Organisational behaviour is specifically concerned with employment situations. Behaviours related to management and human performance. It makes workers getting the same pay, working under the same conditions exhibit different levels of commitment must have fundamental implications on the efficiency of the Organisation. And it is an area that must be understood by management. Organisational behaviour has included for motivation, leader behaviour, and power, learning, attitude development and perception, change process, conflict, and work stress. Organi...
