the community and provide training on cultural
competency and sensitivity.

through several ways such as linguistic variations,
which influence the way services are offered.
• Such necessitate interpreters and the use of
culturally appropriate interventions.

5. ORGANIZATIONAL THEORY & DESIGN
• Theory:
• Systems Theory.
• The systems theory looks at smaller sections of an organization and how
they work together to make a whole.
• By applying the Systems Theory, it will be more straightforward to
create a human resource program that is adaptable, flexible, and
responsive to the target clients' needs.
• Systems Theory will make it possible to understand every section of the
program and how to contribute to the overall success where the
program accomplishes its objectives and mission.
• Work Division:
• Work will be shared among departments and people in teams in an
efficient and effective way.
• The program will use a functional organizational structure where work is
shared into functional departments such as clinical, administrative, and
outreach services.
• Each department will have a clear set of responsibilities and tasks that
align with the goals and mission of this program.
• The program will assign roles and responsibilities to specific individuals
within each department.
