Design your own start-ups, or to interview one of the local business at Troy. As we go through the chapters, you are required to complete the following component in your group presentation.
- Brief description of your organization (e.g., what product/service does it provide)
- External environment analysis (Chapter 2)
- Elaborate each player in the task environment
- Highlight the dimensions of general environment that are more relevant to your organization (e.g., how the sociocultural environment impacts your organization’s performance)
- Internal environment analysis (Chapter 2)
- Which of the four organizational cultures described in the textbook fits your organization best, explain
- What management practices would you adopt to maintain such culture?
- SWOT Analysis (Chapter 5)
- List the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities & threats of your organization
- Be specific, provide sources of strengths, weaknesses etc.
- Porters’ Five-Force Analysis (Chapter 5)
- Drawing on Porter’s model, examine the attractiveness of industry your organization is competing in, from threats of new entrants, bargaining power of buyers, bargaining power of suppliers, threats of substitutes as well as competition rivalry.
- After thoroughly examined the five dimensions, you and your group members will give a rating for each of the five dimensions, whether it is low, moderate, or high.
- Design an Organizational Structure (Chapter 7)
-
- Work specialization high or low in your organization?
- Span of control? Tall structure or flat structure?
- Centralization or decentralization?
- Choose departmentalization that fits best to your organization
You only need to do the last part:
- Design an Organizational Structure (Chapter 7)
-
- Work specialization high or low in your organization?
- Span of control? Tall structure or flat structure?
- Centralization or decentralization?
- Choose departmentalization that fits best to your organization
I will give you PPT later. And you must have this textbook below.
