Answer» :1. Identification and Division of Work It involves identification and division of total work to be done into specific activities (called jobs) in accordance with previously determined plans. By dividing the work, the burden of work can be shared among the employees. It facilitates specialization of work & skills. Duplication of work can be avoided by dividing the work into manageable activities. 2. Departmentalisation: The second step in organizing is to combine or group similar or related jobs into larger units called departments, divisions or sections. They can be grouped on the basis of functions, products, customers and territories etc. Departmentalization is done to achieve coordination & to facilitate unity of efforts. 3. Assignments of duties: Once departments have been formed each of them is placed under the charge of an individual called departmental head (e.g., production manager, finance manager etc.). Jobs are then allocated to the members of each department according to their skills and qualifications. 4. Establishing Reporting Relationships: Merely allocating work is not enough. Each individual should also know from whom he has to take orders and to whom he is accountable. It helps in coordination amongst various departments.
