Managing an "Organized" Organization

Numerous textbooks on management define the responsibilities of a manager as planning, organizing, directing, coordinating, and controlling. One of the functions sometimes given short shrift is organizing. Corporations and agencies can run without being totally organized, but some would argue that a successful, efficient organization, and one that makes the best use of all of its resources, is one that is orderly, neat, has well-defined processes, has the tools to accomplish the agency’s goals and objectives, and employs staff who know how to utilize these tools and perform the tasks for which they are held accountable. This article focuses on these aspects of organizing.

Key Words: organize • manage • process • flowchart • output • accountability
