The purpose of this assignment is to have the student identify and analyze various organizational structures, along with how structure impacts work and organizational culture.
Using class material from the past weeks/modules, trade sources, and research-based articles from the online library, develop a 6-8-page research paper that addresses the relationship of structure to culture in creating an effective and efficient place to work. For this assignment, you will evaluate the strategies managers can utilize to impact organizational structure and culture. Address the following in your paper:
Compare and contrast good (pick two) and not-so-good organizations (total of four organizations). You can select from the best places to work (Forbes, Glassdoor, etc.). Research and describe each organizations’ structures and cultures.
Evaluate organizational structure in a global, domestic, service, or industrial setting. Consider how each differs in regards to the mission, management decision-making, and workflow.
Analyze why the structure and culture work well in those organizations that are deemed the best places to work.
Identify three strategic ways a manager could improve the interface of structure and culture.
Finally, many large organizations are trying to transition to smaller more flexible structures. Identify three management strategies that can make a bureaucratic organization a more team-oriented, collaborative, and inclusive culture.
Use at least three scholarly articles and other professional sources to support your work.
