DIMENSIONS OF ORGANIZATION DESIGN
Organizations are moldable, more or less, as their size and structure allows. The initial step into understanding them is to study their features that describe their design characteristics. In this way you can understand organizations much like you would understand an individual’s personality and physical abilities.Organizations have two interdependent features: structural dimensions and contingency factors.
Structural dimensions describe those internal organizational characteristics than help define and measure that which exist by comparison with other organizations. For instance, a structural dimension would be “size” of, employees, sales, volume, etc.On the other hand, Contingency factors embrace larger elements that inspire structural dimensions. They are products of the organizational landscape that effects and shapes structural dimensions.
