CHAPTER 6 Section 4: Formal Organizations

The Nature of Formal Organizations Preindustrialization who did people spend a majority of their time with? Why? Born in hospitals, educated in large schools, employed by huge corporations, regulated by government agencies, cared for in nursing homes, and buried by funeral homes, members of industrialized societies are more and more finding themselves in formal organizations. Formal Organization – a group deliberately created to achieve one or more long-term goal. Bureaucracy – a formal organization based on rationality and efficiency.

Major Characteristics of Bureaucracies The most important characteristics of bureaucracies:  A division of labor based on the principle of specialization.  A hierarchy of authority.  Power  Authority  A system of rules and procedures.  Written records of work and activities.  Promotion on the basis of merit and qualifications. In bureaucracies rules rather than personal feelings guide personal interactions. This is done to prevent favoritism and keeps any one person within as irreplaceable.

Power and Authority  Power – the ability to control the behavior of others.  Authority – the legitimate or socially approved use of power. People submit to authority because they think it is the right thing to do.

What is our business? What specialists will we need to be successful? Who has the most authority? Is there a chain of authority? Why are we choosing to run our business this way?

Informal Structure Within Organization Informal Organization – groups within a formal organization in which personal relationships are guided by norms, rituals, and sentiments that are not part of the formal organization. Formal Organization Informal Organization
