THE INFLUENCE OF ORGANIZATIONAL DESIGN ON THE ORGANIZATIONAL EFFICIENCY (A CASE STUDY OF IBOM MERIDIAN HOTEL AND GULF RESORT, UYO, AKWA IBOM STATE)
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1. BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Every Organization, sect, household and business needs proper management to ensure smooth running of such Organizational set up. Any institution that is not properly managed, planned and controlled cannot achieve success. In a nutshell, good management needs to be established. Human, material and financial resources must be present to achieve managerial goals and objectives. If proper manpower budget is not well planned, the Organization would be
faced with high risk of failure. Cole (2009) posits that Human resources planning are not just a number game, even though labour statistics are an important element in it. Human resource planning is as much, if not more, concerned with the quality of personnel and with their deployment throughout the Organization. Maxwell (2007) posits that managers should stop trying to grow Organization but rather work on people’s attitudes. If that is done, organizations will experience 10% growth overnight. In an Organization, people are the most difficult resources to be managed. With this reason, correct care must be established in choosing personnel to man sensitive positions among a company. Most Organizations in Nigeria especially in Public Sector, to achieve managerial success need set up an administrative department so as to have a proper coordination of the activities. An administrative office need plan to source for its manpower. The idea of selecting staff to man and occupy positions in most Organizations like the public
sector is known as recruitment and appointment. Administrative functions also include discipline, promotion, training and the rest to achieve set targets. A housewife who plans her day to day domestic functions like getting the home tidied up, getting meals prepared at appropriate time, getting the children ready for school, ensuring that they are performing greatly in their academics and setting some control measures is already carrying out management act. There’s a protracted standing concern that the strategy literature wants a more robust understanding of however structure structure and decision making have an effect on structure performance. This concern goes back to what Cyert and March (2013), United Nations agency used the subsequent queries in motivating their theoretical enterprise: “What happens to information because it is processed through the organization? What predictable screening biases are there in an organization? How do hierarchical groups make decisions?” But with a few exceptions, questions of this sort remain mostly unexplored in the strategy literature.
