Organizational Structure
Organizational Structure refers to the established framework defining how various roles, responsibilities and relationships are assigned, coordinated, and controlled within an organization to achieve its objectives efficiently and effectively. It is a system that outlines the hierarchy of authority and communication channels, governs reporting structures, delineates formal communication pathways, and determines the distribution of resources, rights, and duties across departments or teams. Organizational Structure influences decision-making processes, workflows, culture, and employee behavior while ensuring accountability, clarity of roles, and optimal use of resources towards achieving organizational goals.
