GUIDES TO GOOD ORGANIZATION
1. Your organization must be based on the work activities cited in your plan
as necessary to achieve your objectives.
2. Group similar work activities together and determine the people, work
place, and other resources required to achieve the performance level you plan
for.
3. Assign people, work place, and other resources to each activity.
4. Be certain responsibilities, authorities, and relationships are
clearly defined in writing, understood, and accepted by all people concerned
with each activity.
5.
Try to keep
decision-making, and the authority to make decisions, at the lowest level where
all facts are available.
6.
Each person should report to only one superior, and actions
requiring prior approval should be considered at the step immediately above this
position in the organization.
7* Balance the number of people accountable to a superior such that he can
give adequate attention to each (span of control) and still perform his other
duties (planning, controlling, administration, etc.)
8. Clearly define in writing the relationships between . interdependent units
of line and/or staff.
9* Establish inspection and audit procedures outside of the responsibilities
of the unit performing the work, and provide review of controls at the next
higher level in the organization.
