1、F84T 34 Managing People and OrganisationsOutcome 4NAME:SCN:CLASS:ContentsIntroductionThe purpose of this report is to examine the understanding of management structure in the organization and its application. There are five sections in the report: management structure before merger; management struc

2、ture after new development; contingency approach and its variables after merger; different relationships within the new structure; relevance of different relationships with new structure.Section 1:The Structure at Present in Shangri-la HotelAt present, flat structure is used in the management of the

3、 hotel. Hybrid management structure is used. Craig used the centralized and line approach to manage the restaurant .Ailsa used the decentralized and team approach to manage the hotel. In the hotel, all of the work was divided into four types according to different products or services: chambermaids,

4、 reception, kitchen staff and waiting staff. Flat structure: it means that a business has few vertical level of management and a wide span of control. As a result, the relationship between manager and subordinate will be closed, the flow of information will be quick, and it will save administrative

5、expenses. However, because of wide spans, the communication between the same level department and employees will be difficult. In the case, for example, in the kitchen, there were only two levels: Craig, the manager; kitchen staffs and waiters. Craig directly gave the subordinates their different ta

6、sks. So it was a flat structure. Centralization& Decentralization: the centralization means that the important decisions are taken by the top management and the other levels implement the directions that top manager gives. In the case, Craig mainly used the centralized approach. For example, all his

7、 subordinates must follow the menu made by Craig. And Craig made decisions by himself and allocated tasks to kitchen staff and waiters. It should be a centralized approach. Decentralization means top manager delegates authorities to all levels of management. In the case, Ailsa used this decentralize

8、d approach. For example, in the management of Ailsa, she gave rights to Antonio to run things. It was a decentralized approach.Line structure: it means that authority comes down from the boss to their staff directly in a line relationship. Its advantage is that it is very convenient to communicate b

9、ecause of the direct line relationship. However, because it needs an one-to-one managing process, the managing tasks are too heavy. It will be costly. In this case, Craig used the line approach. Craig allocated specific tasks to different staffs. He required that all staffs should do dishes followin

10、g his menu. And he required the waiters should attend to customers within five minutes of being seated. He managed all the individuals in the restaurant directly. So it was a line approach.Team structure: it refers to divide the entire organization into work groups or teams. After dividing into team

11、s, there will be high employee involvement and empowerment. The functional barriers will also be reduced. However, the ambiguous chain of command will arise. In the case, Ailsa used this approach. She divided all staffs in the hotel into several teams, such as the reception team managed by Antonio,

12、the cleaning staff team, and the chambermaids team. Every team had their own specific work to do, and every team number involves in the management. So it was a team approach. Product or service: it means that the entire organization is divided into different departments according to the products or

13、service supplied to customers. In the case, is was divided into four types: chambermaids, reception, kitchen staff and waiting staff. For example, in the management of the hotel, Craigs staffs were divided into following parts: the kitchen cook, the purchasing staff and the waiters. They did differe

14、nt tasks and made different products or service to customers. So it was a products or service approach. Section 2:An Appropriate Form of Re-Structure for Shangri-la HotelAfter the new development of the organization, the organizational structure can be divided into three parts: the manager, the staf

15、f and the supplier. It is called a Shamrock management structure. The departmentalization approach could also be used. Product departmentalization: it means that the entire organization is divided into different departments according to the products or service supplied to customers. In the case, bef

16、ore merger, it consists of four types: chambermaids, reception, kitchen staff and waiting staff. There would be additional two types after the merger. One was is farm , the other is Gordons restaurant. Shamrock structure: It especially refers to the three-part or three levels of an organizational structure. In the shamrock organization there are three different groups
