In The Process, You Should Address The Following Questions:
What functions does your organization employ? What is the relative magnitude of each needed to keep the organization operating? How are they differentiated vertically and horizontally? (Consider developing a flowchart to illustrate the answer to this question, though you should also describe it narratively).
How important is integration to your organization (be sure to consider the function and environment in this answer)? What will be done to protect against the development of a subunit orientation? In other words, what techniques does your organization use to encourage integration?
Why are these appropriate? What types of decisions will be centralized in your organization? Why types of decisions will be decentralized? What factors drive you to centralize some decisions over others?
What is the correct balance between centralization and decentralization for your organization? What characteristics of your task and the environment lead to this decision? What level of discretion or standardization exists in your organization that exists in your organization?
Why is this level of standardization appropriate? What types of activities are standardized and which are not? What is it about these tasks and about the environment that leads to this decision?
What rules and norms exist in your organization that make this structural design effective? What socialization activities will your organization engage in to foster understanding and acceptance of these rules and norms?
What type of formal structure will your organization utilize (functional, divisional, matrix…). Why was this structure chosen?
