The structure of an organization is identified as a management instrument for implementing strategies and realizing determined objectives. Designing the structure is part of the senior manager’s job and is focused on shaping the form and the body of the organization. To make the structure efficient, there is a need for maintaining some proportion between its theoretical and practical aspects. Managers should consistently maintain proportion between the strategic and the socio-cultural aspects of structure. Basically, organizational structure needs modification with the occurrence of one of the following situations:
Changes in strategic direction: When organizational strategies change, the structure must be reshaped according to those changes.
Redefining duties: When the definition of duties change in an organization, the structure must also change.
Socio-political changes: Changes in an unofficial organization through official organizational arrangements require a change in structure.
Organizational development: Changes in the size and the domain of an organization require a change in structure.
Changes in employees: Changes in employees inevitably require a change in structure.
Reaction to internal organizational affairs: Functional issues caused by environmental disproportion require a change in structure.
Changes in the operational space: Changes in the operational space of a business make it necessary to adapt to these changes structurally.
By changing the structure, it becomes possible to make new arrangements in the organization or redesign the pace and the style of organizational activities.
