Question
Write Short Note on the following:
Importance of organizing.
Solution
The importance of organising can be explained through the following points:
- Clear definition of working relationships - Under organising, the hierarchical structure of the organisation is clearly established; this helps in avoiding any ambiguity in the transfer of instructions.
- Less duplication of work - As various activities are properly assigned to different personnel, duplication of work is minimised.
- Optimum utilisation of resources - By ensuring that activities in the organisation are properly aligned, overlapping of work can be avoided. This, in turn, ensures that the resources are efficiently utilised and minimum wastage of efforts is done.
- Improved specialisation - Under organising, activities of similar nature are grouped together and tasks are assigned to people as per their skills and capabilities. This allows the organisation to focus on the specialisation of work.
