Conclusion................................................................................................................................................................ Reference ..................................................................................................................................................................IntroductionThe purpose of this report is to examine the understanding of management structure in the organization and its application. There are five sections in the report: management structure before merger; management structure after new development; contingency approach and its variables after merger; different relationships within the new structure; relevance of different relationships with new structure.Section 1:The Structure at Present in Shangri-la HotelAt present, flat structure is used in the management of the hotel. Hybrid management structure is used. Craig used the centralized and line approach to manage the restaurant .Ailsa used the decentralized and team approach to manage the hotel. In the hotel, all of the work was divided into four types according to different products or services: chambermaids, reception, kitchen staff and waiting staff.Flat structure: it means that a business has few vertical level of management and a wide span of control. As a result, the relationship between manager and subordinate will be closed, the flow of information will be quick, and it will save administrative expenses. However, because of wide spans, the communication between the same level department and employees will be difficult. In the case, for example, in the kitchen, there were only two levels: Craig, the manager; kitchen staffs and waiters. Craig directly gave the subordinates their different tasks. So it was a flat structure.Centralization& Decentralization: the centralization means that the important decisions are taken by the top management and the other levels implement the directions that top manager gives. In the case, Craig mainly used the centralized approach. For example, all his subordinates must follow the menu made by Craig. And Craig made decisions by himself and allocated tasks to kitchen staff and waiters. It should be a centralized approach. Decentralization means top manager delegates authorities to all levels of management. In the case, Ailsa used this decentralized approach. For example, in the management of Ailsa, she gave rights to Antonio to run things. It was a decentralized approach.Line structure: it means that authority comes down from the boss to their staff directly in a line relationship. Its advantage is that it is very convenient to communicate because of the direct line relationship. However, because it needs an one-to-one managing process, the managing tasks are too heavy. It will be costly. In this case, Craig used the line approach. Craig allocated specific tasks to different staffs. He required that all staffs should do dishes following his menu. And he required the waiters should attend to customers within five minutes of being seated. He managed all the individuals in the restaurant directly. So it was a line approach.Team structure: it refers to divide the entire organization into work groups or teams. After dividing into teams, there will be high employee involvement and empowerment. The functional barriers will also be reduced. However, the ambiguous chain of command will arise. In the case, Ailsa used this approach. She divided all staffs in the hotel into several teams, such as the reception team managed by Antonio, the cleaning staff team, and the chambermaids team. Every team had their own specific work to do, and every team number involves in the management. So it was a team approach.Product or service: it means that the entire organization is divided into different departments according to the products or service supplied to customers. In the case, is was divided into four types: chambermaids, reception, kitchen staff and waiting staff. For example, in the management of the hotel, Craig’s staffs were divided into following parts: the kitchen cook, the purchasing staff and the waiters. They did different tasks and made different products or service to customers. So it was a products or service approach.Section 2:An Appropriate Form of Re-Structure for Shangri-la HotelAfter the new development of the organization, the organizational structure can be divided into three parts: the manager, the staff and the supplier. It is called a Shamrock management structure. The departmentalization approach could also be used.Product departmentalization: it means that the entire organization is divided into different departments according to the products or service supplied to customers. In the case, before merger, it consists of four types: chambermaids, reception, kitchen staff and waiting staff. There would be additional two types after the merger. One was is farm , the other is Gordon’s restaurant.Shamrock structure: It especially refers to the three-part or three levels of an organizational structure. In the shamrock organization there are three different groups of people: basic managers, employees as the core part, the external co- workers and the part-time workers as a form of supplement.As above graph shows, the organization of the hotel was divided into three parts in the Shamrock model. The first part was the manager in the organization. This part played an important role in the organization. In the case, Craig was a manager who directs the tasks in the kitchen and the restaurant. He arranged and managed the kitchen andmadeimportant role in the operating activities of the hotel. The chambermaids and waiting staffs provided service to customers and the kitchen supplied foods and drinks to customers. The third part was supplier- Gordon. Gordon supplied raw materials from his farm to Craig’s kitchen. Also, Gordon opened a restaurant which consisted of his wife, two chefs and four waiters. Every part in the Shamrock organization has their own expectations.Section 3:The Influence of Task, Technology, and Size on the New StructureContingency theory holds the view that there is no one best way to structure. The particular situational factors such as size, technology or task will determine the systems and structures employed.Task: it means that the nature and size of the task will influence shaping the organization. For example, in the case, before Gordon converted his farm house to his restaurant, his main task was to grow and sell organic products. So the organization was a simple one. After owning a restaurant, the tasks became complicated and the organization structure became complicated as well. So the nature and size of the task will determine the type of the organization structure.Technology: Technology relates to the production process used. It is not just related to the information technology, but also to the technology of producing a product or supplying service. In this case, before the merger of Gordon’s farm as a hotel, Ailsa made marketing strategies and plans which focused on the city customers and business. After the merger, Ailsa must make another different marketing strategy which should be feasible in Gordon’s farm. Appropriate technology is very important in the operating process of an organization.Size: It is an essential factor that influences the shape and structure of an organization. Also, different size of organizations have different producing procedures and outcomes. In the case, after the merger, the hotel had a lot of changes in the size. For example, the number of stuff was increasing. Besides, because Gordon’s farm was a part of the hotel, it would be less costly to buy raw materials used in the kitchen. It would a competitive advantage in price within its competitors.Section 4: Line, Staff ,Functional and Lateral relationships within the New StructureLine relationship: it means that authority comes down from the boss to their staff directly in a line relationship. In the case, Craig was responsible for managing and directing the kitchen staff and waiters. He allocated the specific tasks to different staffs to ensure that his plans were completed. This was an example of the line relationship.Staff relationship: It means the relationship between the staffs in different departments. For example, in the case, the relationship between reception staff and other staffs, such as the maintenance staff.Functional relationship: It is a relationship which exists between different functions in the hotel. In the case, for example, the relationship between the accountant function and other functions. They all had closed relationship in the organization.Lateral relationship: It is a relationship which exists between the same level of staffs which are in different systems and do different tasks. For example, there were waiters in both Ailsa’s and Craig’s management system. But waiters in Craig’s restaurant supplied service to customers eating here. And waiters in Ailsa’s hotel supplied service to customers living here. This was a lateral relationship.Section 5: Authority, Responsibility and Delegation within the New StructureAuthority: It is a right to order or direct others to do specific tasks, and then attract the responses which are appropriate to achieve the goals of the organization. For example, in the case, only Craig had the authority to allocate tasks to his staffs. And only Craig and Saskia had the right to sign for any procedure. Few changes appeared after the merger.Responsibility:It is the obligation for some people in the organization to perform a task, assignment or function. In the case, for example, Antonio as a reception manager,had the responsibility on reception of clients. Few changes appeared after the merger.Delegation: It is an action to pass the responsibility or authority to a person to carry out and complete the specific task. In the case, Ailsa delegated her right to Antonio to help her manage the hotel. However, Craig hardly delegated any right to others. As a result, it caused some problems such as staffs’complaints. The suggestion is that Craig should delegate some rights to the staff, such as some decision-making. In this way, the involvement of the staffs will be increased. And the efficiency of kitchen operation will be improved.ConclusionThe findings of the report reveal the management structures, contingency theory and different relationships and their applications in different situations.ReferenceYuan Yu, Zhang Shutao,2013,Managing People and Organisations, China Modern Economic Publishing House.。

Conclusion4. Reference1. IntroductionScotia Airways is located next to Glasgow International Airport. My reporter is expounding the goals and objectives, policy, the principles of Open System Theory. As we know, the organizations have two styles: the formal and the informal. I will identify the differences about two organizations of the Scotia Airways. At last I will describe the stakeholders of the company and control strategies.2.1 Goal2.1.1 Operational GoalTh e Scotia Airway’s operational goal is that this company operates scheduled flights, mainly targeting business and leisure travelers and aims to provide exceptional value for money, unparalleled comfort and convenience to its passengers, every time they are on board. Its first consumer goal is that the airlines international flights will only use custom built wide bodied aircraft, and would not offer economy class travel.2.1.2 Consumer GoalThe first consumer goal is that Scotia Airways is the first airline to offer business class service, but at prices that are equivalent to the economy class of its competitor. The other policy is that develop a reputation for its strict adherence to the UK civil aviation standards, the level of service provision it offers over and above the minimum consumer travel protection schemes and its proactive role in identifying and meeting customer needs.2.2 Policy2.2.1Culture PolicyIn Scotia Company, there is a culture fostered by the Chief Executive which has been reinforced by positive management approaches and wide ranging reward policies that were agreed and supported by Trade Union.2.2.2Expansion PolicyThe other policy is expansion policy that the investor in Scotia Airways has set an ambitious program for expansion over the next 5 years to include long haul destination.2.3 Advice on effective managerial performance·For a company to perform well, the first is comm itting the company’s success aswell as the development of company members.·The second is learning appropriate skills to do the tasks. For instance, the ScotiaAirways recruit many employs 80 staff across all departments so we can see thatthey are doing some preparation for the target.·The company should have its own clear identity. From the previous paragraphs, we can clearly know that Scotia Airways’ operational goals and consumer goals, therefore this company put up a good performance in self-recognition.·The company should learns from the mistakes and cope with setbacks. Forexample, if the airplanes’ takeoffs and landing is not always on time, the Airways Company should find out why it occurs frequently to prevent recurrence of similar problems, not doing so, the company will lose its consumers little by little.·The Company should be results focused and produces real results.·Scotia Airways should encourage its stuff to be positive and motivated.2.4 Main principles of Open Systems Theory·Open systems theory is a way of thinking about dynamic systems, or systems thatinteract with their environments. All businesses are dynamic systems, evolving and changing in response to feedback. Open systems theory is useful for businessesbecause it provides a framework for thinking about processes such as change --- a regular part of running a business.·An open system is a system which continuously interacts with its environment. The interaction can take the form of information, energy, or material transfers into or out of the system boundary, depending on the discipline which defines the concept (see below). An open system should be contrasted with the concept of an isolated system which exchanges neither energy, matter, nor information with its environment.·The principle of an "open system" was formalized within a framework that enabled one to interrelate the theory of the organism, thermodynamics, and evolutionarytheory. This concept was expanded upon with the advent of information theory and subsequently systems theory. Today the concept has its applications in the natural and social sciences.·Open systems have a number of consequences. A closed system contains limitedenergies. The definition of an open system assumes that there are supplies of energythat cannot be depleted; in practice, this energy is supplied from some source in the surrounding environment, which can be treated as infinite for the purposes of study.One type of open system is the so-called radiant energy system, which receives its energy from solar radiation – an energy source that can be regarded as inexhaustible for all practical purposes.2.5 Differences between formal and informal organization·Within any company there are two types of organization - the formal structure and the informal structure.·Both effect the organization and relationships between staff. The formal organization refers to the formal relationships of authority and subordination within a company.The primary focus of the formal organization is the position the employee/manager holds. Power is delegated from the top levels of the management down the organization. Each position has rules governing what can and cannot be done.·There are rewards and penalties for complying with these rules and performing duties well. The informal organization refers to the network of personal and social relations that develop spontaneously between people associated with each other. The primary focus of the informal organization is the employee as an individual person. Power is derived from membership of informal groups within the organization. The conduct of individuals within these groups is governed by norms-that is, social rules of behavior.·When individuals break these norms, other members of the group impose sanctions on them. Clearly, the informal structure can be either beneficial or detrimental to the functioning of the company or both. People who work in an organization are only human and their effectiveness may depend on their personal relations with thosearound them. An obvious illustration is that if a manager is aware of a personality clash between employees he must respond.2.6 Four primary stakeholders of Scotia Airways·First primary stakeholders is the owner of SA, they are interest in the profitability of company. And they control the company’s economic lifeline, when the companymakes profit; they are care about the dividend. They always decide the strategy of Scotia Airways, choosing the staff on the company sometimes, affecting the wholeoperations.·Second is the employees, actually they are the most important part of the wholecompany, because they influence the development of working condition, in thecases, the key is that repairer can provide perfective maintenance and the airlinestewardess have good service, and the more profit the company would get. Ofcourse ,they do better, they can gains the higher payment ,what they most carethings.·Third is the government, in the economic social, government play an irreplaceable role in market, for example, government would have some laws what is limited the over development of SA, such as the taxation and the health and safety laws. Insome ways, the taxation is paid attention, because it is a part of government income.·The last is the customers. The groups of people are interest in the rewarding value for money, in the form of goods or service. SA provides unparalleled and comfortable service would appeal to so many customers. Customers are a source of income, in other word, the SA wouldn’t be existing for a long time if they lack of cus tomers. 2.7 Effective control strategy2.7.1 Establish rulesIt is hard to change the ethos and culture of the business. So we can know that many of the workforces are anxious about the expansion. And this significant restructure is a challenge for all the workforce because the business remains are anxious about the expansion and the possible risk which could makes them fired.Therefore, the management team should control this situation through establishing rules, which has identified the ethos, culture of business and what the expansion could bring but stressed how the company plans to deal with it. So workforce won’t worry about losing their job and no need to looking for the next possible job.2.7.2 Recruit new staffThis is the first step to encourag e workforce but it’s not enough for management to ensure the plan implement successfully, thus, we still need to control it by recruiting new staff. The new staffs that are more creative for this expansion and training can make the reliability and consistency be achieved.2.7.3control through the organization structureThe first I think Scotia Airways control through the organization structure very well, from the first paragraph everyone can clearly know about the present Scotia Airways’ self-recognition that operates scheduled board flights. The last paragraph tells the ambitious program for expansion over next 5 years to include long haul destinations. We can see that this company understand its present situation clearly and is aware of what it wants to be.2.7.4 MotivationThe motivation is also very necessary. Through rewarding and punishing, I believe it will have a big motivation to workforce. Rewards are given in the form of financial benefits as well as non-monetary benefits-benefits in kind- such as company cars, free meals, and uniforms. Other rewards of a more intrinsic nature include job satisfaction, responsibility and autonomy. Actually punishing is a effective way to encourage workforce yet, which can develop a situation of competition. In the meantime it may be useful to look at some theorists’ work.2.7.5 Control through machineryAs for the bandied feeling of’ if it’s not broken, don’t fix it’, what exists within it is lack of creativity and initiative which does harm for a brand new expansion plan to proceed. This attitude is very wrong. Even though it is still a small Airways Company, it should keep their airplanes in good repair frequently rather than repair it after it’s broken. So controlling through machinery frequently is full of importance.2.7.6 Control through the budget and financeScotia Airways control through the budgets and finance. For example, the fourth paragraph tells us” there has been an increase in staffing levels, an increase in budget and an increase in capital inve stment”, we can know that Scotia Airways is very smart, I think they know a saying” no pain, no gain.” .This company want to be expanded so they must offer some capital such as money to gain long benefit.3. ConclusionAccording to the information of the findings, there are some advantages and weaknesses in this company. The advice and suggestions given can help the organization to identify the future structure for better management.4.

IntroductionThe purpose of the report is what to understand more fully the organization management. I learned c ompany's departments’ work together in order to achieve thecompany's goals. This report has five sections which are relationship between goals, objectives and policies,differences between the formal and informal organization,open System Theory, different stakeholders and effective control strategy.Section 1: Relationship between goals, objectives and policiesThe relationship between goals, objectives and policy facilitates to the effective management. Goals and objectives provide the desired results, and the policy is guiding people how to do. Feasible policies can help the realization of the aims and objectives of better.Goals:Goals are long-term. Consumer goals are to provide to the customer the demand of consumers.Shangri-La Hotels maintain a high quality of customer service. This is the Shangri-la Hotel's consumer goals. Product goals are to provide customers with high quality product. Craig insisted on selecting the freshest fruits and vegetables this is the Shangri-la Hotel product goals. Service goals are to provide customers with high standards of service. The Shangri-la Hotel promises when customers need the waiter, waiter arrive within five minutes to the customer side. This is the Shangri-la Hotel's service goals.Objectives:Objectives are short-term. Objectives are more specific than the goals; it can determine the specific direction. Objectives can help an organization determine a number of factors such as the time factor and the causal factors. The Shangri-la Hotel promises when customers need the waiter, waiter arrive within five minutes to the customer side. The Shangri-la Hotel maintained a 3-star Michelin chef. These are the Shangri-la Hotel's objectives. SMART make objectives more effective more efficient concrete. Kitchen staff training date is by May 1999. Waiting staff to attend table within 3 minutes.Policies:Policies provide a fixed set of rules or guidelines. Craig stock only in the Gordon Meldrum Company. Ailsa increase their salary. All staff received training in the hotel of the highest standards. These are Shangri-La's purchase policies.Section 2: Differences between the formal and informal organization Each Business organization has a formal and an informal aspect of organization. Formal organizationFormal organization has a clear organizational structure and clear management delegation and has a certain degree of control. Formal organizations are designed to be clear regulations and determining role. Shangri-La Hotel is a formal organization. Informal organizationsInformal organizations are flexible and loose structure, are spontaneous and have different levels of participants and the relationship is not defined. Informal organization can provide interest and pleasure in working life. Craig personal centralized control kitchen has many complaining voice. These small groups are composed of an informal organization.Section 3: Open System Theory什么事开放式系统Reduction in salary will lower the staff attitude resulting in a decline in service quality. Improve the quality of staff, can improve the quality of service of the staff.PEST is used to analyze the external and macro-environment. SWOT is used to analyze the internal and external environment. Five forces are used to analyze the internal and micro-environment.For SWOT analysis of cases.Strengths The Shangri-la Hotel is a much coveted 3-star Michelin award. Highest rated three-star Michelin in a year, if there is no qualified local behavior of falling stars or the stars, has maintained three Michelin stars is Shangri-La's strength. Antonio is the reception manager has been with the firm for many years. Antonio has a wealth of management experience and problem-solving methods encounter difficulties at the hotel she can solve problems in time. All staffs are going to the local college. Train staff to a local University, you can improve the overall quality of staff, so as to improve the hotel's service quality.Weaknesses Because of Craig’s personal centralized control and employees work depressing.Craig's personal authoritarianism is the working atmosphere is depressed, many employee complaints, it leads to lower quality service attitude and service of the staff. Personal centralized control make employees could not finished working regular overtime. Craig relies too much on Gordon Meldrum's raw material. If the contract is terminated or the enhanced bargaining power of suppliers and will cause the hotel suppliers to break, affecting the normal operation of Shangri-La Hotel. Opportunities Craig on TV show to join chef’s competition can enhance the hotel’s reputation.Craig on behalf of Shangri-La Hotel, appeared on television and got good grades, let more people know the hotel's details. The economic crisis two multi-national companies are about to set up headquarters in Glasgow. Two companies based in Glasgow, it has a lot of potential customers, for Shangri-La Hotel is a new opportunity for the development.Threats Economic crisis collapse of three companies and these companies is large customer of Shangri-la Hotel. Recession economic downturn reduced consumers ' willingness to spend, will lower the Shangri-La's customers.Section 4: Different stakeholdersInternal stakeholders are owner, manager and employee.Owner: Owners have the ability to profit-making companies, and ability to develop strategic and tactical direction. The Stewart families are owners. Respectively Sandy Stewart and his wife, their son and their daughter Craig Ailsa.Manager: Managers have responsibility for their implementation; the capacity can be the company's dividend and profit. Also can to use problem-solving skills and wealth of experience. They can get the stability of wages. In the Shangri-la Hotel Ailsa and Craig are managers.Employee: Employee training opportunities, and opportunities for promotion in the company. Staff will affect the quality of enterprises and service. In the Shangri-la Hotel the reception manager, accountant, a team of receptionists and maintenance staff are employees.External stakeholders are government, supplier, financer, community and customer. Government :Government to comply with the legislation to ensure the health and safety of the masses can gain tax. Government is local governmentsSupplier: Supplier is to provide a source of income the company. They want to ensure their payment; therefore, the liquidity of the company is very important. While good relationships are also important. In the Shangri-la Hotel Gordon Meldrum is the supplier.Financer:Financers are responsible for the company's liquidity. Also can determine and influence the terms of repayment and loan period.Community: Provides employment opportunities for local communities and supports local events, participation in local decision-making. United Kingdom the soil Association is the community.Customer: Customers with stability and reliability. Customers want the company to provide high quality products and services. In the Shangri-la Hotel business clients and international visitors are customers.Section 5: Effective control strategyPersonal centralized control One personal is management. In the Shangri-la Hotel Craig is the management he in the kitchen. Craig often communicates with the kitchen staff, to ensure that other employees can understand his approach. And Craig to dinner is a strict requirement.Bureaucratic control Arbitrary rows from the masses have rigid organizational structures and fixed rules and regulations. In the Shangri-la Hotel Craig personally prepared the menu for the restaurant.Output control Shangri-la Hotel staff unit assessment.Ailsa took the initiative to big companies pull customers, to manage the matter to members of the company.Cultural control In the spiritual leadership of the staff, feel their own enterprise culture.In the Shangri-la Hotel they every weekend have free drink for the team to celebrate.I recommend the Shangri-la Hotel with cultural controls. Cultural control can make workers more aware of their corporate culture, so employees can better serve the Shangri-la Hotel.ConclusionI learned not only of the use of personal authoritarianism and atmosphere can lead to depression, affect the quality of service. Reasonable control of culture so that employees understand the cultural background of the enterprise, can better serve the company. Company's departments should work together in order to achieve the company's goals.ReferenceLaurie J.

Conclusion.......................................................................................................... Reference............................................................................................................ IntroductionThe purpose of this report is to examine the understanding of management structure in the organization and its application. There are five sections in the report: management structurebefore merger; management structure after new development; contingency approach and its variables after merger; different relationships within the new structure; relevance of different relationships with new structure.Section 1:The Structure at Present in Shangri-la HotelAt present, flat structure is used in the management of the hotel. Hybrid management structure is used. Craig used the centralized and line approach to manage the restaurant .Ailsa used the decentralized and team approach to manage the hotel. In the hotel, all of the work was divided into four types according to different products or services: chambermaids, reception, kitchen staff and waiting staff.Flat structure: it means that a business has few vertical level of management and a wide span of control. As a result, the relationship between manager and subordinate will be closed, the flow of information will be quick, and it will save administrative expenses. However, because of wide spans, the communication between the same level department and employees will be difficult. In the case, for example, in the kitchen, there were only two levels: Craig, the manager; kitchen staffs and waiters. Craig directly gave the subordinates their different tasks. So it was a flat structure.Centralization& Decentralization: the centralization means that the important decisions are taken by the top management and the other levels implement the directions that top manager gives. In the case, Craig mainly used the centralized approach. For example, all his subordinates must follow the menu made by Craig. And Craig made decisions by himself and allocated tasks to kitchen staff and waiters. It should be a centralized approach. Decentralization means top manager delegates authorities to all levels of management. In the case, Ailsa used this decentralized approach. For example, in the management of Ailsa, she gave rights to Antonio to run things. It was a decentralized approach.Line structure: it means that authority comes down from the boss to their staff directly in a line relationship. Its advantage is that it is very convenient to communicate because of the direct line relationship. However, because it needs an one-to-one managing process, the managing tasks are too heavy. It will be costly. In this case, Craig used the line approach. Craig allocated specific tasks to different staffs. He required that all staffs should do dishes following his menu. And he required the waiters should attend to customers within fiveminutes of being seated. He managed all the individuals in the restaurant directly. So it was a line approach.Team structure: it refers to divide the entire organization into work groups or teams. After dividing into teams, there will be high employee involvement and empowerment. The functional barriers will also be reduced. However, the ambiguous chain of command will arise. In the case, Ailsa used this approach. She divided all staffs in the hotel into several teams, such as the reception team managed by Antonio, the cleaning staff team, and the chambermaids team. Every team had their own specific work to do, and every team number involves in the management. So it was a team approach.Product or service: it means that the entire organization is divided into different departments according to the products or service supplied to customers. In the case, is was divided into four types: chambermaids, reception, kitchen staff and waiting staff. For example, in the management of the hotel, Craig’s staffs were divided into following parts: the kitchen cook, the purchasing staff and the waiters. They did different tasks and made different products or service to customers. So it was a products or service approach.Section 2:An Appropriate Form of Re-Structure for Shangri-la HotelAfter the new development of the organization, the organizational structure can be divided into three parts: the manager, the staff and the supplier. It is called a Shamrock management structure. The departmentalization approach could also be used.Product departmentalization: it means that the entire organization is divided into different departments according to the products or service supplied to customers. In the case, before merger, it consists of four types: chambermaids, reception, kitchen staff and waiting staff. There would be additional two types after the merger. One was is farm , the other is Gordon’s restaurant.Shamrock structure: It especially refers to the three-part or three levels of an organizational structure. In the shamrock organization there are three different groups of people: basic managers, employees as the core part, the external co- workers and the part-time workers as a form of supplement.As above graph shows, the organization of the hotel was divided into three parts in the Shamrock model. The first part was the manager in the organization. This part played an important role in the organization. In the case, Craig was a manager who directs the tasks in the kitchen and the restaurant. He arranged and managed the kitchen and restaurant into a normal operation. Ailsa played a key role in the marketing and management of the hotel. She worked hard in the managing hotel development and made great progress finally. The second part was staff. There were four types : chambermaids, reception, kitchen staff and waiting staff. They also played an important role in the operating activities of the hotel. The chambermaids and waiting staffs provided service to customers and the kitchen supplied foods and drinks to customers. The third part was supplier- Gordon. Gordon supplied raw materials from his farm to Craig’s kitchen. Also, Gordon opened a restaurant which consisted of his wife, two chefs and four waiters. Every part in the Shamrock organization has their own expectations.Section 3:The Influence of Task, Technology, and Size on the New StructureContingency theory holds the view that there is no one best way to structure. The particular situational factors such as size, technology or task will determine the systems and structures employed.Task: it means that the nature and size of the task will influence shaping the organization. For example, in the case, before Gordon converted his farm house to his restaurant, his main task was to grow and sell organic products. So the organization was a simple one. After owning a restaurant, the tasks became complicated and the organization structure became complicated as well. So the nature and size of the task will determine the type of the organization structure.Technology: Technology relates to the production process used. It is not just related to the information technology, but also to the technology of producing a product or supplying service. In this case, before the merger of Gordon’s farm as a hotel, Ailsa made marketing strategies and plans which focused on the city customers and business. After the merger, Ailsa must make another different marketing strategy which should be feasible in Gordon’s farm. Appropriate technology is very important in the operating process of an organization.Size: It is an essential factor that influences the shape and structure of an organization. Also, different size of organizations have different producing procedures and outcomes. In the case, after the merger, the hotel had a lot of changes in the size. For example, the number of stuff was increasing. Besides, because Gordon’s farm was a part of the hotel, it would be less costly to buy raw materials used in the kitchen. It would a competitive advantage in price within its competitors.Section 4: Line, Staff ,Functional and Lateral relationships within the New StructureLine relationship: it means that authority comes down from the boss to their staff directly in a line relationship. In the case, Craig was responsible for managing and directing the kitchen staff and waiters. He allocated the specific tasks to different staffs to ensure that his plans were completed. This was an example of the line relationship.Staff relationship: It means the relationship between the staffs in different departments. For example, in the case, the relationship between reception staff and other staffs, such as the maintenance staff.Functional relationship: It is a relationship which exists between different functions in the hotel. In the case, for example, the relationship between the accountant function and other functions. They all had closed relationship in the organization.Lateral relationship: It is a relationship which exists between the same level of staffs which are in different systems and do different tasks. For example, there were waiters in both Ailsa’s and Craig’s management system. But waiters in Craig’s restaurant supplied service to customers eating here. And waiters in Ailsa’s hotel supplied service to customers living here. This was a lateral relationship.Section 5: Authority, Responsibility and Delegation within the New StructureAuthority: It is a right to order or direct others to do specific tasks, and then attract the responses which are appropriate to achieve the goals of the organization. For example, in thecase, only Craig had the authority to allocate tasks to his staffs. And only Craig and Saskia had the right to sign for any procedure. Few changes appeared after the merger.Responsibility:It is the obligation for some people in the organization to perform a task,assignment or function. In the case, for example, Antonio as a reception manager, had the responsibility on reception of clients. Few changes appeared after the merger.Delegation: It is an action to pass the responsibility or authority to a person to carry out and complete the specific task. In the case, Ailsa delegated her right to Antonio to help her manage the hotel. However, Craig hardly delegated any right to others. As a result, it caused some problems such as staffs’ complaints. The suggestion is that Craig should delegate some rights to the staff, such as some decision-making. In this way, the involvement of the staffs will be increased. And the efficiency of kitchen operation will be improved.ConclusionThe findings of the report reveal the management structures, contingency theory and different relationships and their applications in different situations.ReferenceYuan Yu, Zhang Shutao,2013,Managing People and Organisations, China Modern Economic Publishing House.。

He kept closetabs on exactly what each one did, as he believed that every dish that left the kitchen had his signature on it and therefore had to meet his rigorous standards.Saskia as Disseminator in the hotel. Whenever Craig was away from the hotel, Saskia was delegated the job of issuing work to the kitchen and waiting staff.2A. Explain Likert's System theory on leadershipThis theory is he and his colleagues on the production as the center of the style of leadership and people-centered leadership after a comparative study of the results. The theory is that support relationship is a two-way street. Leaders want to consider the situation of subordinate staff, ideas, and hope, help staff to achieve its objectives, make the worker to realize their own value and importance. Leader this support can motivate subordinates to the worker the worker of leadership take the attitude of cooperation, trust, support the leader's job.He's led four system model is put forward in 1967, is the leadership style is divided into four types of systems. Exploitative authoritative, benevolent authoritative, consultative and participative.He thinks only a fourth way - "participative" to achieve truly effective leadership to correctly set goals for the organization and effectively reach your target. Given the leadership to take way to motivate people, so he thought, this is the most effective way of leading a group. Management style 1 is called "the exploitative authoritarian" or "authoritarian - authoritarian". In this way, the director of the personnel is very authoritarian, rarely trust subordinates, to make people fear and punishment, the method of combination rewards to motivate people, occasionally take a top-down communication, decision-making authority is limited to the top.Management way 2 is referred to as "benevolent authoritative" or "enlightened authoritarian", in this way, the director of the personnel have full of trust and confidence of the staff; Reward and punishment and incentive methods; Allow a certain amount of communication from bottom to top, solicited subordinates some ideas and Suggestions; Granted to certain decision-making power at a lower level, but firmly control policy. Management style 3 is called "consultation". Take this way, the director of the personnel of subordinates have quite big but not fully trust and confidence, he often try to adopt the subordinate ideas and opinions; The reward, occasionally with punishment and a certain degree of participation; Engaged in two-way communication information up and down; Top on major policy and overall decision-making at the same time, allow lower-level departments make specific decision problem, and in some cases.He believes that 4 is the most effective approach of management way, can be called “participatory" collective. Managers to take a fourth way of subordinates in all matters with full confidence and trust, always get ideas and opinions from subordinates, and actively adopt them; To determine the objectives and evaluation target the progress, organize groups to participate in, on the basis of the material rewards; More engaged in the communication between with colleagues between up and down; I encourage organizations at all levels to make decisions, or as members of the group with their subordinates to work together.2B.Which system do you believe apply to Craig and Ailsa's approach to management . explain your answer.Craig often use the benevolent authoritative system in the hotel. At the end of each week, Craig always provided free drinks for the team to celebrate, and the team always enjoyed these get-togethers. Craig always made a point of telling the team they had done a good job at the weekly get-together.Ailsa often use the group participative system in the hotel. Ailsa knew that Antonio had many years’experience in the hotel trade and trusted him and the team to implement this strategy. The sales visits that Ailsa made meant she was often away from the hotel, but in her absence Antonio ran things with little problem or fuss.3A.Describe how the Tannenbaum and Schmidt Theory of leadership shows that different situations demand different leadership approachesR. Tannenbaum and Warren Schmidt in 1958 leading behavior continuum theory is proposed. , they argue, managers in deciding what behavior (style) is most suited to produce oftendifficult when dealing with a problem. They don't know whether should I make a decision, or authorized to make decisions.1, tells-the leaders make decisions and announced. In this mode, the leaders identify a problem, and is considering various alternatives, choose a, and then announced to subordinates, not to direct participation in decision-making.2,sells- leader to persuade subordinates executive decisions. In this mode, with the former mode, the leader of responsibility for the identified problems and make decisions. But he is not simply declared to implement the decision, but realized that subordinates may exist inopposition, and tries to illustrate the benefits of this decision may give subordinates to persuade subordinates to accept the decision, to eliminate the subordinate.3, leaders put forward plans and solicit opinions of the subordinates. In this mode, the leaders put forward a decision, and hopes to subordinates to accept the decision, he offered the subordinate a details about his plans, and allow the subordinate problems are put forward. In this way, the staff can better understand the leader's plan and intentions, leaders and subordinates to discuss the significance and role of decision making.4, leader can modify the plan is put forward. In this mode, the subordinates can affect decisions play a certain role, but the initiative in identifying and analysing problems are still in the hands of leaders. Leader first to think of a problem, which is a temporary plan is put forward. And give the tentative plan to relevant personnel to ask for some advice.5, leader to ask questions, ask for opinion make decisions. In the above several kinds of mode, the leaders before they ask fortheir opinions put forward their own solutions, and in this pattern, subordinates in the decision to make before put forward their own Suggestions. The leader's active role in problem determination, subordinate role is to put forward a variety of solutions, and finally, leaders from their own and subordinates of the solutions proposed a he thinks the best solution.6, leader scope issues, subordinates collective decision-making. In this model, the leader has decision-making authority to the subordinate group. The leader's job is to figure out what the problem to be solved, and put forward decision-making for subordinates the conditions and requirements of subordinates in accordance with the extent of leaders define the problem to make decisions.7, leader allows subordinates within the limits prescribed by the boss. This model represents the extreme freedom of groups. If the leader took part in the decision-making process, he should try to make myself and other members of the team is in equal status, and prior statement observe group made any decision.3B.Describe the Bass theory of leadership and explain how it can be used to enhance the motivation, moral and job performance of employeesBass will initially be transformational leadership is divided into six dimensions, and then summarized as three key factors, Avolio in its basic way of transformational leadership behavior will be summarized as four aspects,inspirational motivation, intellectual Stimulation,idealized Influence and individualized consideration.Inspirational motivation refers to the leader r of followers placed high expectations, through the incentive to make them involved in the business of achieving an organization's vision. Inpractice, the leader use beliefs and emotional appeal to condensed group members, in order to obtain greater achievement than individual interests, so the factors to enhance the team spirit.Intellectual Stimulation refers to leaders inspire their followers to creativity and innovation consciousness, on its own and the leader's beliefs and values, beliefs and values to the organization also questioned, leader support follower try the creation of new theory, new method to solve the problems of the organization, to encourage the followers to think independently and solve problems.Idealized Influence refers to the leader to the follower by way of example, followers of the leader, and is willing to follow the leader, the leader usually have higher moral standards, values and moral behavior, the leaders provide followers goals and vision, a sense of mission to followers.charismaindividualized consideration refers to the leader to create a supportive atmosphere, followers to listen carefully to the individual needs, a leader in helping the individual self-fulfillment when playing with the coach and the role of advisor, help followers to achieve its own needs and development.3c. Explain how Craig could use the above approaches to improve his leadership styleCraig also believed it was important to study at college, but he spent a lot of time personally with the kitchen staff to ensure that they understood his personal methods and that meals had to be prepared to his exacting standards.At the end of each week, Craig always provided free drinks for the team to celebrate, and the team always enjoyed these get-togethers.4.Explain two ways in which managerial performance can be measured and in each case describe how the measure can be used to assess managerial performance.Measures of managerial effectiveness method is refers to the use of certain quantitative indicators and evaluation standard, to achieve its performance goals,and to achieve this the budget execution results taken by the comprehensive evaluation method. Measures of managerial effectiveness including Appraisal, Staff development, Management development and Development programmes.Staff development : Effective development requires a systematic approach, which begins when the human resources department formulates its plan, This plan outlines the job requirements for the future in order to achieve the organizational goals, along with performance criteria in order to achieve the goals.Management development is under the specific environment of group has the resources for effective planing, organizing, leading and controlling, in order to achieve the established process of organizational goals.In case , Ailsa and Craig always use staff development. Ailsa had close links with the local college who ran hospitality courses, and would often take on learners who were studying there as part-time staff. On completing their studies, many of these learners opted to take up full-time employment with the hotel, at which time Ailsa would increase their salary. Craig believed it was important to study at college, but he spent a lot of time personally with the kitchen staff to ensure that they understood his personal methods and that meals had to be prepared to hisexacting standards.Craig always use management development. Craig depended greatly on Saskia, having worked together in London for many years.
