Structure must be more flexible (i.e., decentralized authority) when environmental change is rapid.The Organizational Environment: The Organizational Environment Strategy Different strategies require the use of different structures. A differentiation strategy needs a flexible structure, low cost may need a more formal structure. Increased vertical integration or diversification also requires a more flexible structure.The Organizational Environment: The Organizational Environment Technology The combination of skills, knowledge, tools, equipment, computers and machines used in the organization. More complex technology makes it harder for managers to regulate the organization.Technology: Technology Small Batch Technology Used to produce small quantities of customized products Based on the skills of people who work in small groups Mass Production Technology Automated machines that are programmed to make high volumes of standard products. Formal structure is the best choice for workers who must perform repetitive tasks.Technology: Technology Mass Production Technology Based on the use of automated machines that are programmed to perform the same operations over and overTechnology: Technology Continuous Process Technology Totally mechanized Based on the use of automated machines working in sequence and controlled through computersTechnology: Technology Knowledge management The sharing and integrating of expertise within and between functions and divisions through realtime, interconnected ITThe Organizational Environment: The Organizational Environment Human Resources Managers must take into account all four factors (environment, strategy, technology and human resources) when designing the structure of the organization.Question?: Question?
