Structural considerations
To a strategist the organisation
structure is much more than a chart containing the hierarchical order.
What is Structure?
An organisation structure is the arrangement of tasks
and sub-tasks required to implement a strategy.
The diagrammatical representation of structure could
be an organisation chart,but a chart shows only the SKELETON.
The FLESH AND BLOOD that makes the
organisation alive is the several administrative mechanisms,such as controls that support the structure.
