MGT 430 Week 5 Assignment – Organizational Chart and Teamwork

Week 5 Assignment – MGT 430
Organizational Chart and Teamwork
For this week’s assignment, find an organizational chart for your employer or any organization that you aspire to work for.
Is it primarily functional or process-focused?
What advantages or problems do you see with this organizational structure?
How might the structure be redesigned to better meet the needs of employees and other stakeholders?
The requirements below must be met for your paper to be accepted and graded:
1. Write a report between 500 – 750 words (The title page and References section are not counted toward the word requirement) using Microsoft Word in APA style.
2. Address all three questions fully.
3. Use font size 12 and 1” margins.
4. Use at least three references from outside the course material. The course textbook and lectures can be used but are not counted toward the three-reference requirement.
5. References must come from sources such as, academic and scholarly journals and essays found on CNN, online newspapers such as, The Wall Street Journal, government websites, etc. Sources such as, Wikis, Yahoo Answers, eHow, blogs, etc. are not acceptable for academic writing.
6. Cite all reference material (data, dates, graphs, quotes, paraphrased words, values, etc.) in the paper and list on a reference page in APA style. Provide citations everywhere information from the sources is used for foundational support and for validation of opinions.
7. Use the third person narrative and avoid the use of the first- and second-person narrative and terms such as; I, me, myself, you, your, yourself, we or us (or related form such as let’s (let us) or we’ll, we’ve (we will / we have) among others). This will prevent the author or other parties from becoming the subject matter and will maintain the focus of the paper on the central theme and subject matter found in the elements.
8. Be informational and avoid being conversational.
