The document discusses various aspects of organizational design and structure. It begins by listing four presenters and their employee IDs. It then covers topics such as work specialization, organizational design elements like authority, departmentalization, chain of command, span of control and alternatives to specialization. The key aspects of work specialization include breaking down jobs into discrete tasks and having workers focus on specific skills. While specialization increases efficiency, it can also lead to monotony and loss of flexibility. The document discusses alternatives like job rotation, enlargement and enrichment to address the disadvantages.

STARWest 2013 Courage and Freedom in Exploratory TestingGriffin Jones
Exploratory testing (ET) consists of simultaneous learning, test design, test execution, and optimization. Most people are able to adopt the outward behaviors of ET but struggle to adopt an ET mindset. Griffin Jones explains that this mindset requires reflecting on four basic questions: Am I learning and adapting? Am I working on the correct mission? Should I redesign the task? Should I change how I perform the task? Sharing his experiences across project roles, Griffin explains why courage and freedom are critical ingredients in answering those four questions. He describes the warning signs of a superficial commitment to the values of ET. Learn the power of asking the question: What is the best test I can perform, right now? Move beyond mimicry and the superficial. Leave with a way to align yourself with the deeper values of exploratory testing.

The Four Dimensions of Performance ImprovementTechWell
Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, a team dealt with unrealistic deadlines, impossible stakeholders, and demotivated testers, who had no time to do things smarter and faster, just hammering away on the project “hamster wheel.” Then one day, as if heaven sent, a magical, but systematic approach to performance improvement, solving performance problems, and enhancing testing service delivery arrived in the form of the Four Dimensional Performance Improvement model. Marisa Müller describes this model that recognizes that performance relies on more than just people. Four dimensions of performance improvement—worker, workplace, work, and world—make up the total system. Marisa shares how her organization went about identifying and closing gaps, and provided empirical evidence that raised the understanding of the important value added by software testing. Join Marisa in exploring practical ways to apply to your own team what they did and empower you to transform testing’s value add and service delivery.
Leading and Managing Through the Design of EnvironmentsMichael Hamman
These slides are from a webinar which George Schlitz and I conducted in February 2013. In this presentation, we talked about 'environment design' as a management practice for catalyzing the capacity for organizational agility.
Environment design constitutes a set of very practical management practices which reflect, nevertheless, a recognition of that social systems (i.e. organizations and companies) are inherently complex and therefore call for an entirely new paradigm for management.
TPM is a world class manufacturing initiative that seeks to optimize the effectiveness of manufacturing equipment. This TPM Team Guide teaches supervisors, workgroup leaders and operators how to develop the team-based skills required for effective and sustainable TPM implementation.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

An organizational design is the outline of a
company’s framework and guidelines for
managing business operations.
Is

12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Work specialization
Authority and responsibility
Centralization versus decentralization
Chain of command
Span of control
Departmentalization

5. Specialization
• Specialization is the term used to
describe when someone gets really
good at a particular work task.
• One task can be done very well and
quickly.
• Workers end up with very specific
skills
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Decision Making/ Ali Fahad

6. Work Specialization
Work specialization is a component of
organization structure that involves
having each discrete step of a job done
by a different individual rather than
having one individual do the whole job.
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
6
7. Key Features
• The entire job is broken down into
steps, each step completed by a
separate individual.
• Individual workers specialize in
doing part of an activity.
• Involves repetitive performance of
a few skills.
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
7
8. Key Features
• Can be viewed as a means to make
the most efficient use of employee's
skills
• Some task requires highly developed
skills
• Others can be performed by the
untrained
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Work Specialization/ Ali Fahad
8
10. Advantages
• Efficiency:
A person who spends his or her time
performing one relatively simple task
becomes very efficient at that particular
task.
• Time Saving:
No time wasted on in moving from
one job to another. Transfer time between
tasks is decreased.
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
10
11. Advantages
• Equipment:
The savings on equipment. If workers
specialize, they will not need to have a full
set of tools or other equipment.
• Training:
There is a saving time on training of
operatives. An employee could be easily
trained for a particular task he or she
specializes in, in a short period.
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Decision Making/ Ali Fahad
11
12. Advantages
• Employee replacement becomes easier.
• Efficiency:Practice make perfect, there fore
the work within particular skills will develop
skills and efficiency through repetition of the
job.Work specialization creates efficiency and
productivity
• Job specialization is job security and you could
also get higher pay for being specialized in a
certain area.
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Decision Making/ Ali Fahad
12
13. Advantages
• Reduce Cost of Production:
In the particular activities the specialized
person will be effectively handling it out
as a result there be no need giving cost of
repeating the same job.
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Decision Making/ Ali Fahad
13
14. Disadvantages
• Loss of flexibility:
If workers specialize too much it may
be difficult for them to performing other
tasks when there is a need to cover for
workers who are not present.
• Monotony:
Workers can get bored performing
the same tasks everyday. This may result in
them making mistakes and may result in
absenteeism or even labor turnover.
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Decision Making/ Ali Fahad
14
15. Disadvantages
• Loss of skills:
Some claim that by breaking
production into a series of separate, simple
and often mechanized tasks, workers are
not challenged and are not able to gain
sufficient job satisfaction.
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Decision Making/ Ali Fahad
15
16. Disadvantages
• Increased risk of unemployment:
Specialization means that workers
may not have a wide range of skills. When
demand or supply conditions change their
particular skills may no longer be needed.
You could also have a hard time
finding a new job if your set of skills is
specialized in one area.
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Decision Making/ Ali Fahad
16
17. Alternatives
• To promote career
development, alternatives include job
rotation, job enlargement and job
enrichment activities
• You can enable employees to develop
and expand their abilities in a few
ways. Broaden the job
characteristics, such as the number of
tasks a person performs.
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Decision Making/ Ali Fahad
17
18. Alternatives
• Job Rotation
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Systematically moving employees from
one job to another.
This reduces employee boredom.
It also enables you to ensure that you
have trained employees ready to perform
all the different types of tasks required to
produce a product or service.
Decision Making/ Ali Fahad
18
19. Alternative
• Job Enlargement:
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
An increase in the total number of
tasks performed.
Increases training costs, unions want
workers paid more pay for doing more
tasks, and work may still be dull and
routine.
This can make employees feel more
valuable to the organization and reduce
absenteeism due to low morale and
boredom with a single task.
Decision Making/ Ali Fahad
19
20. Alternative
• Job Enrichment:
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Increasing both the number of tasks the
worker does and the control the worker has
over the job.
It is more comprehensive than job rotation
or job enlargement
When workers have a high degree of
autonomy, they tend to take more interest
in their work.
This motivates them to produce products
and services of high quality.
Decision Making/ Ali Fahad
20
21. Alternative
• Job characteristics approach
• The job characteristics approach is an
alternative to job specialization that
suggests that jobs should be diagnosed
and improved along five core
dimensions, taking into account both the
work system and employee preferences.
The five dimensions are as follows:
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Decision Making/ Ali Fahad
21
22. Alternatives
Core Dimensions
• Skill variety—the number of tasks a person does
in a job.
• Task identity—the extent to which the worker
does a complete or identifiable portion of the
total job.
• Task significance—the perceived importance of
the task.
• Autonomy—the degree of control the worker
has over how the work is performed.
• Feedback— the extent to which the worker
knows how well the job is being performed.
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Decision Making/ Ali Fahad
22
23. Alternatives
• Work Team
– An alternative to job specialization that allows
the entire group to design the work system it
will use to perform an interrelated set of tasks.
24. Centralized Design
Centralized organizational structures rely on
one individual to make decisions and provide
direction for the company.
Small businesses
Owner Responsible
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Work Specialization/ Ali Fahad
24
25. Advantages
Efficient regarding Business Decision.
Business owners typically develop the
company’s mission and vision.
Employees follow clear cut commands.
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Work Specialization/ Ali Fahad
25
27. Decentralized Design
Several Individuals responsible for decision
making and running of business.
“Run their department as they see fit.”
Rely on Team Environment.
Individuals have certain level authority.
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Work Specialization/ Ali Fahad

29. Disadvantages
Everyone has different opinion.
Difficult in gathering everyone on same
business page.

30. Authority and Responsibility
Authority: It is the power that has been
legitimized by the organization.
Responsibility: It is an obligation to perform
the assigned activities.
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Work Specialization/ Ali Fahad
30
31. Delegation
The process by which managers assign a
portion of their total workload to others.
Reasons:
To enable the manager to get more work done by utilizing
the skills and talents of subordinates.
To foster the development of subordinates by having them
participate in decision making and problem solving.
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Work Specialization/ Ali Fahad

32. Line Authority and Staff Authority
• Line authority entitles manager to direct the
work of an employer. A manager with the line
authority has the right to direct the work f
employees and make certain decisions
without consulting anyone.
• The staff authority is used to support, assist
and advise the holder of line authority.

34. Departmentalization
Departmentalization is the
grouping of jobs according to some
logical arrangement. As the
organization grows in size and
complexity, it is no longer possible for
one manager to oversee all of the
workers, so workers are assigned to
new managers based on some overall
plan.

• Advantages
– Each department can be
staffed by functional-area
experts.
– Supervision is facilitated in
that managers only need be
familiar with a narrow set of
skills.

slow and bureaucratic.
– Employees narrow their
focus to the department and
lose sight of organizational
goals/ issues.

46. Chain Of Command
• A clear and distinct line of authority among
the positions in an organization.
Components of chain of command:
There are two components:
• Unity of command.
• The scalar principle.
12/3/2013 10:19 AM
Decision Making/ Ali Fahad

48. Unity of Command
• Unity of command suggests that each person
within an organization should have a clear
reporting relationship to one and only one
boss.

49. The Scalar Principle
• The scalar principle suggests that there
should be a clear and unbroken line of
authority that extends from the lowest to the
highest position in the organization.

50. Span of control
• The span of control determines how
many people will report to each
manager.
• It is the number of subordinates that a
manager can direct efficiently and
effectively.

54. Establishing Reporting Relationships:
Tall Versus Flat Organizations
• Tall Organizations
– Are more expensive
because of the number
of managers involved.
– Foster more
communication
problems because of
the number of people
through whom
information must pass.
• Flat Organizations
– Lead to higher levels of
employee morale and
productivity.
– Create more administrative
responsibility for the
relatively few managers.
– Create more supervisory
responsibility for managers
due to wider spans of
control.
