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.。

Based in Louisville, Ky, is the world's largest restaurant company in terms of system units with nearly 38,000 restaurants in over 120 countries and territories and more than 1 million associates. Yum! is ranked 213 on the Fortune 500 List and generated more than $12 billion in revenue in 2011. The brands include - KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell –are the global leaders of the chicken, pizza and Mexican-style food categories. Five brands in the global system of total turnover exceeded 22 billion U.S. dollars, ranking first in the world's food and beverage industry, the restaurant industry is a global leader in muti-brand collections.Although Yum has created great achievement, it also has some problems in organization structure. Such as a large span of control means that one manager need to direct control many staffs. It does not have benefit to improve production efficiency. At present, it is the best time for Yum to re-structure.2.0 The current situation about Yum2.1 Organic systemAn organic system, also known as adaptive organization, is a low complexity, low formalization and decentralization. Organic organization is a loose, highly adaptable and flexible form. Because they do not have standardized work and rules and regulations, it is a loose structure, can quickly make adjustments as needed.Yum is generally an organic organization. In the company, employees are free to communicate with leaders. Departments use specialized knowledge and experience to collaborate to address common tasks. Adjustment of individual tasks as well as members of the organization is completely redefine personal affairs through the interaction between colleagues to achieve. The communication between them based more on information and advice than instructions and command. At the same time, staffs also enjoy a large degree of autonomy.2.2 Organization chartOrganization structure mainly can be divided into three parts: top, middle and bottom. The top is the most important, because they had the largest authority and responsibilities, they are the core of a company's. The middle part is responsible for the communication of upper and lower order, and management staff. The bottom is a large labor force, is the main force of production. The level of command is stepwise diminishing from top to bottom.The organizational structure of Yum is flat structure. Flat structure is base on tall structure and function structure. Flat organization refers to an organizational structure with few or no levels of intervening management between staff and managers. Theidea is that well-trained workers will be more productive when they are more directly involved in the decision making process, rather than closely supervised by many layers of management.2.3 The method of managementYum's management mode is Decentralized Management. Decentralization it‟s mean the modern enterprise organization to play the low layer organization's initiative and creativity, give the production management and decision-making authority to the subordinate organization, the highest leadership only focus on a few relations overall interests and major problems of decision-making power.Yum always follows the decentralized management methods. Company delegate power to each subsidiary company, each company can make some rules and regulations, including the development of new products and sales. It‟s can improve their initiative and creativity in the meantime.2.4 The problems in the current YumThere are several structure problems that are existed in the current Yum. The span of control is a flat hierarchy. There are too many staff in the same department, the treatment of employees decreased, and less chance of promotion. The managers are difficult to manage a large number of employees. Requirements management must have a high ability. With the continuous growth of the company, the structure of the company become increasingly sophisticated. Managers and employees cannot adapt to the new changes, low work efficiency, company's profit fell. So, it is really important for Yum to restructure in the now time.3.0 The solution3.1 Shamrock organizationAn organizational structure in particular to consist of three or three leaves. The shape of the symbolic enterprise three is composed of three groups of be totally different person, its definition is "the basic management and staff as the core, the external contract workers and part-time workers as a form of organization supplement".This organization mode is often used to explain why the non core businessThe functions of the subcontracted to other social enterprises, three groups of people with different expectations, receiving three different management, bring different wages, and are organized in a different way.The first leaf: For the core of expert system, the core staff composed of senior experts, technical staff and management personnel. Professional training of these employees are generally good, is power enterprises senior management.The second leaf is made up of self-employed professionals, technicians and smaller organizations that are hired on contract. They are paid in fees for results rather thanin salary for time. No benefits are paid by the core organization and the worker carries the risk of insecurity. They also enjoy considerable autonomy.The third leaves: Representative is a very flexible labor, such as part-time and temporary workers. In handy mode, this part is not only hire helper, enterprises should fully close to them, let them feel a part of the organization, and high standard work. This part of the decision making power of workers usually limited within the scope of their work.3.2 Matrix structureMatrix organization structure is based on linear function type vertical form of organization system, to add a horizontal leadership system, composed of functional departments and the completion of a temporary task and the formation of project teams, organizational structure to realize the divisional and functional organization structure. Matrix organization structure can also be referred to as the non fixed long-term organizational structure.Advantages:Mobile, flexible, with the project development and the end of organized or dissolution.Because the structure is based on the project organization, task clarity, clarity of purpose, the various aspects of expertise who are prepared. So in the new working group, communication, fusion, to their work with the whole working together, to overcome the difficulties, problems and suggestions, because from the aspects of deployed personnel have a sense of trust, sense of honor, so they increase the sense of responsibility, to stimulate the work enthusiasm, promote the the project implementation.It has also strengthened cooperation between different departments and information exchange, overcomes the linear functional structure in various departments disjointed phenomenon.3.3 The impacts of technology, size and task on Organization structure in YumThe contingency approach proposes that businesslike organization must conform its structure in a sense that is compatible to the type of surroundings in which it operates as well as the technology it uses and any other context related element such as business circumstances.Task: The structure that an organization selects to achieve its objectives is based on strategy. Yum providing a clear direction and strategies is build leading brands across China in every significant category.Then Yum established China's business division.Size: While the size of an organization significantly influences its structure, the relationship is non-linear. Yum Brands predecessor was Tricorn Global Restaurant, was the United States Pepsi group company of a sales department, on October 7, 1997 from Pepsi Co separation, become an independent public company.When the company expand team size, the group's operating profit margins by three years ago 11% increase to 16%, and in the whole year of 1998 and the first half of 1999, all three brand chain sales are increasing, the group appeared thriving new scene.Technology: Organizations use technology to transform inputs into outputs. 2005, Yum brands group and IBM announced formally signed the 《Restaurant IT System Installation and Support Agreement》, in China install 7000 sets of IBM POS machine.After Yum! restaurant improve IT system , customer satisfaction rose by 23%.3.4 The line, staff, functional and lateral relationships in new strThe human resources department, financial department, legal department, operations department and three division have different functions, such as: the human resources department is responsible for recruiting and training the employees; financial department is responsible for accounting, and so on. Black fine line represents Yum's functional structure.Yum line relationships have four layer, the blue line represents linear function, the first layer is the board of directors, the second is the CEO, the third floor is all headquarters, the fourth floor is three division.Yum‟s lateral relationships includes five headquarters, with green line shows that; And three division, black thick line shows that，the five headquarters and three division is lateral relationship.The staff relationships of Yum is the authority of the board of directors of the range is CEO, the scope of duties and powers of the CEO is all employees of five headquarters and three division.3.5 The relationship between authority, responsibility and delegationAuthority:Authority is the right to direct or guide the actions of others and extract from them responses that are appropriate to achieving the goals of the organization.The authority of the board of directors is guide to CEO's decision.Responsibility:Responsibility is the obligation placed on a person who has a certain position in an organization to perform a task, assignment or function.Three business divisions responsibility is obtain profit for Yum.Delegation:Delegation is the act of passing the responsibility to complete a task to another person.CEO empower three business division relatively independent autonomy and management.ConclusionAccording to the report, discovered the Yum in the management of human resources have advantages and disadvantages. According to its deficiencies, in the following suggestions, The leader should use Shamrock Organization theory to strengthen leadership and Yum‟s organizational structure‟d better chose multidivisional structure. Yum‟s management of human resources,the most successful is staff training, due to Yum‟s excellent staff training,let the staff wastage rate of Yum was zero, this is wonderful. Now this is the best time to re-structure the organizations in order to get the most effective transmission of information; regarding the organization is a big surprise, so that the organization can develop more accelerate to achieve better results.Reference1.Amaratunga, D., Bailey, D., Sarshar.

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.

There are five sections in the report: management structure before merger; management s tructure 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 orservices: chambermaids, reception, kitchen staff and waiting staff.Flat structure: it means that a business has f ew 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. H owever, because o f 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, r eception, 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 andmanagement 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 anCraig: Kitchen Restaurant Alisa: MarketingFarm supply: 3 staffsRestaurant: wife, 2 chefs, 4waiters ManagerSupplier-Gordonimportant 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 theirown 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.。

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.

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 andhave 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 andproblem-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.

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.

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 canmake 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.

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 decentralizedapproach. 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.

Recently, they are concentrate on domestic market but now they are looking for a new international market. There are advices that given to them on decision making and strategy before they enter the international market, this is the purpose of the report.2. The selection of suitable product requirementsMeet customer needsThey must know the Australia customers’needs well while entering the Australia market, such as the color, size, style and the goods. Zen plastics will avoid unlucky logo so that can suit customers flavor.Meet legal requirementsWhile entering the Australia market, Zen plastics should know the low of Australia and observe it. Therefore they have to meet the legal requirements of Australia. After this, Zen plastics can trade and make business well in their range. The international trade agreements will be negotiated. While negotiating, Zen plastics must obey the rules that accord with Australia low. Australian are pay attention to what Zen plastics’influences to them, such as the risk of trade between them and the environment polluted issues. When Zen plastics exporting, they must avoid these issues so that promoting business trade.3. Evaluate the types of promotion required for success in the Australian marketThere are four type of promotion required for success in the Australia market that Zen plastics would choose to promotion, they are advertising, personal selling, public relations, sales promotion.As for the advertising, it success or not depend on its words, sometimes words are translate to other language that lose its meaning. The message must be translated in such a way to keep the meaning intact. Except this, the other is the medium, different countries with different level of prosperous should choose different medium which are suitable for the situation of the country.As for the personal selling, as the name suggests this involves the use of sales people in the international market. To the exporter, there are four potions, appoint a team of sales people who are based at the company headquarters, appoint sales people abroad, open up a branch office in the selected market and appoint a sales force to work from that branch and appoint an agent.While using personal selling, there are some point should be considered. The size of the market to be covered, the extent of effective of personal selling in the market, the number of potential customers.Public relations are press coverage in the overseas market. The definition of PR is usually given as: the deliberate planned and sustained effort to establish and maintain mutual understanding between an organization and its public. The strategies are normally long term and take account of problems that may befall the company. The PR function is both damage limitation and to try and put a positive spin on events. Additional information about overseas countries can be obtained from the Department of Trade and Industry, which has oversea desk for every country in the world.Sales promotion generally covers marketing activities, but not the personal selling or public relations. The basic points are: Demonstrations, exhibitions, catalogues, special offer stamps, buy three for the price two or buy one get one free (BOGOF), special offers, competitions , coupons , free samples and sponsorship.For Zen plastics, making advertisement is the best choice. Also, Zen plastics can put the advertising board on the streets, buildings, or even on the buses and subways which are the most common places of a person’s normal life. This is a effective way for promotion.4. Identify and evaluate the factors that would affect pricing decisions.The price strategy is a very important part when exporting. Zen plastics have to consider the cost of producing the product. The sale price of the product must be higher than the total cost of the product, or the company won’t get any profit.The customers’ buying ability also be considered by Zen plastics. The company has to know the average income and also the disposable income of the consumers. The company will lose money and market share if the price of the product is higher than their ability to pay, then no one will buy the product.Zen plastics also have to consider the competition, The price of Zen plastics shouldn’t be too much higher than the competitors, it is the best choice if the price is the samewith the competitors or much cheaper than the competitors, which can attract the consumers.The exchange rate, , there must be the exchange of the money, so the company has to consider the rate, the selling price must include the extra money of the exchange rate when exporting to another country5. Select suitable distribution channels to be used in the Australian market.The distribution channels to be used by Zen plastics in the Australia market are appoint an agent and wholesalers.AgentThere are advantages of it, the agent will be familiar with the language, customs and market in that country, the agent will already be established in that country with similar products, the export can test the market without incurring high capital investments, the initial investment cost is low and results may be immediate.There are also disadvantages of it, if the exporter dose not support the agent with time and money, the agent may become dissatisfied and may not give the product the amount of time it deserves. This will lead to falling sales, most agents offer a number of product line and can not give their undivided attention to just one product. WholesalersAdvantages of wholesalers are: relatively inexpensive way for an exporter to test out a foreign market, low financial investment required, wholesaler ensures good market coverage.Disadvantages of it: if you have to appoint an intermediary such as a wholesaler they will add a percentage onto the producer’s price to ensure they make a profit, there is reduced profit for the producer, you may need to offer incentives for the wholesaler which may include promotional material, special offers and you may need to offer support in the form of in store demonstrations, training and merchandising.The agents are more suitable than the wholesaler for Zen Plastics. Since the profit is the most important thing for Zen plastics, so they have to pay attention to getting as more profit as they can.。

Individual ReportF84T 34 Managing People and OrganisationsOutcome 4NAME:SCN:CLASS:ContentsIntroduction (2)Section 1:The Structure at Present in Shangri-la Hotel (2)Section 2:An Appropriate Form of Re-Structure for Shangri-la Hotel (3)Section 3:The Influence of Task, Technology, and Size on the New Structure (5)Section 4: Line, Staff ,Functional and Lateral relationships within the New Structure (6)Section 5: Authority, Responsibility and Delegation within the New Structure (7)Conclusion (8)Reference (8)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 intodifferent 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 andbusiness. 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.。

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 beused.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 wasis 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.Manager Supplier-GordonFarm supply: 3 staffsCraig: KitchenRestaurant: wife, 2 chefs,Restaurant4 waiters Alisa: MarketingManaging the hotelChambermaidsReceptionKitchen staffWaiting staff.StaffAs above graph shows, the organization of the hotel was divided into three parts in theShamrock model. The first part was the manager in the organization. This part played animportant role in the organization. In the case, Craig was a manager who directs thetasks in the kitchen and the restaurant. He arranged and managed the kitchen andrestaurant into a normal operation. Ailsa played a key role in the marketing andmanagement of the hotel. She worked hard in the managing hotel development andmade great progress finally. The second part was staff. There were four types :chambermaids, reception, kitchen staff and waiting staff. They also played an importantrole in the operating activities of the hotel. The chambermaids and waiting staffsprovided service to customers and the kitchen supplied foods and drinks to customers.The third part was supplier- Gordon. Gordon supplied raw materials fromhis farm to Craig ’ s kitchen. Also, Gordon opened a restaurantch consistedwhi ofhis wife, two chefs and four waiters. Every part in the Shamrock organization hastheir own expectations.Section 3:The Influence of Task, Technology, andSize on the New StructureContingency theory holds the view that there is no one best way to structure. Theparticular situational factors such as size, technology or task will determine thesystems and structures employed.Task: it means that the nature and size of the task will influence shaping theorganization. For example, in the case, before Gordon converted his farm house tohis restaurant, his main task was to grow and sell organic products. So theorganization was a simple one. After owning a restaurant, the tasks becamecomplicated and the organization structure became complicated as well. So thenature 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 relatedto the information technology, but also to the technology of producing a product orsupplying 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 andbusiness. After the merger, Ailsa must make another different marketing strategywhich should be feasible in Gordon’ sfarm. Appropriate technology is very importantin 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. Forexample, 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 staffdirectly in a line relationship. In the case, Craig was responsible for managing anddirecting the kitchen staff and waiters. He allocated the specific tasks to differentstaffs 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 functionsin the hotel. In the case, for example, the relationship between the accountantfunction and other functions. They all had closed relationship in the organization.Lateral relationship: It is a relationship which exists between the same level of staffswhich are in different systems and do different tasks. For example, there werewaiters in both Ailsa ’ands Craig ’managements system. But waiters inCraig ’restaurant supplied service to customers eating here. And waiters inAilsa ’hotels 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 aresult, 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.。

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 intodifferent 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. Craig: KitchenRestauraFarm supply:3 staffs ChambermaidsReceptionManagerStaffSupplierAs 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 andbusiness. 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.

(8)3.5 The relationship between authority, responsibility and delegation (10)Conclusion ....................................................................................................... . (11)Reference ......................................................................................................... . (12)1.0 IntroductionYum! Based in Louisville, Ky, is the world's largest restaurant company in terms of system units with nearly 38,000 restaurants in over 120 countries and territories and more than 1 million associates. Yum! is ranked 213 on the Fortune 500 List and generated more than $12 billion in revenue in 20XX年. The brands include - KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell C are the global leaders of the chicken, pizza and Mexican-style food categories. Five brands in the global system of total turnover exceeded 22 billion U.S. dollars, ranking first in the world's food and beverage industry, the restaurant industry is a global leader in muti-brand collections.Although Yum has created great achievement, it also has some problems in organization structure. Such as a large span of control means that one manager need to direct control many staffs. It does not have benefit to improve production efficiency. At present, it is the best time for Yum to re-structure.2.0 The current situation about Yum2.1 Organic systemAn organic system, also known as adaptive organization, is a low complexity, low formalization and decentralization. Organic organization is a loose, highly adaptable and flexible form.Because they do not have standardized work and rules and regulations, it is a loose structure, can quickly make adjustments as needed.Yum is generally an organic organization. In the company, employees are free to communicate with leaders. Departments use specialized knowledge and experience to collaborate to address common tasks. Adjustment of individual tasks as well as members of the organization is completely redefine personal affairs through the interaction between colleagues to achieve. The communication between them based more on information and advice than instructions and command. At the same time, staffs also enjoy a large degree of autonomy.2.2 Organization chart Organization structure mainly can be divided into three parts: top, middle and bottom. The top is the most important, because they had the largest authority and responsibilities, they are the core of a company's. The middle part is responsible for the communication of upper and lower order, and management staff. The bottom is a large labor force, is the main force of production. The level of command is stepwise diminishing from top to bottom.The organizational structure of Yum is flat structure. Flatstructure is base on tall structure and function structure. Flat organization refers to an organizational structure with few or no levels of intervening management between staff and managers. Theidea is that well-trained workers will be more productive when they are more directly involved in the decision making process, rather than closely supervised by many layers of management.2.3 The method of managementYum's management mode is Decentralized Management. Decentralization it s mean the modern enterprise organization to play the low layer organization's initiative and creativity, give the production management and decision-making authority to the subordinate organization, the highest leadership only focus on a few relations overall interests and major problems of decision-making power.Yum always follows the decentralized management methods. Company delegate power to each subsidiary company, each company can make some rules and regulations, including the development of new products and sales. It s can improve their initiative and creativity in the meantime.2.4 The problems in the current YumThere are several structure problems that are existed in the current Yum. The span of control is a flat hierarchy. There are too many staff in the same department, the treatment of employees decreased, and less chance of promotion. The managers are difficult to manage a large number of employees. Requirements management must have a high ability. With the continuous growth of the company, the structure of the company become increasingly sophisticated. Managers and employees cannot adapt to the new changes, low work efficiency, company's profit fell. So, it is really important for Yum to restructure in the now time.3.0 The solution3.1 Shamrock organizationAn organizational structure in particular to consist of three or three leaves. The shape of the symbolic enterprise three is composed of three groups of be totally different person, its definition is “the basic management and staff as the core, the external contract workers and part-time workers as a form of organization supplement". This organization mode is often used to explain why the non core businessThe functions of the subcontracted to other social enterprises, three groups of people with different expectations, receiving three different management, bring different wages, and are organized in a different way.The first leaf: For the core of expert system, the core staff composed of senior experts, technical staff and management personnel. Professional training of these employees are generally good, is power enterprises senior management.The second leaf is made up of self-employed professionals, technicians and smaller organizations that are hired on contract. They are paid in fees for results rather thanin salary for time. No benefits are paid by the core organization and the worker carries the risk of insecurity. They also enjoy considerable autonomy.The third leaves: Representative is a very flexible labor, such as part-time and temporary workers. In handy mode, this part is not only hire helper, enterprises should fully close to them, let them feel a part of the organization, and high standard work. This part of the decision making power of workers usually limited within the scope of their work.3.2 Matrix structureMatrix organization structure is based on linear function type vertical form of organization system, to add a horizontal leadership system, composed of functional departments and the completion of a temporary task and the formation of project teams, organizational structure to realize the divisional and functional organization structure. Matrix organization structure can also be referred to as the non fixed long-term organizational structure.Advantages:Mobile, flexible, with the project development and the end of organized or dissolution.Because the structure is based on the project organization, task clarity, clarity of purpose, the various aspects of expertise who are prepared. So in the new working group, communication, fusion, to their work with the whole working together, to overcome the difficulties, problems and suggestions, because from the aspects of deployed personnel have a sense of trust, sense of honor, so they increase the sense of responsibility, to stimulate the work enthusiasm, promote the the project implementation.It has also strengthened cooperation between differentdepartments and information exchange, overcomes the linear functional structure in various departments disjointed phenomenon.3.3 The impacts of technology, size and task on Organization structure in YumThe contingency approach proposes that businesslike organization must conform its structure in a sense that is compatible to the type of surroundings in which it operates as well as the technology it uses and any other context related element such as business circumstances.Task: The structure that an organization selects to achieve its objectives is based on strategy. Yum providing a clear direction and strategies is build leading brands across China in every significant category.Then Yum established China's business division. Size: While the size of an organization significantly influences its structure, the relationship is non-linear. Yum Brands predecessor was Tricorn Global Restaurant, was the United States Pepsi group company of a sales department, on October 7, 1997 from Pepsi Co separation, become an independent public company.When the company expand team size, the group's operating profit margins by three years ago 11% increase to 16%,and in the whole year of 1998 and the first half of 1999, all three brand chain sales are increasing, the group appeared thriving new scene.Technology: Organizations use technology to transform inputs into outputs. 20XX年, Yum brands group and IBM announced formally signed the 《Restaurant IT System Installation and Support Agreement》, in China install 7000 sets of IBM POS machine.After Yum! restaurant improve IT system , customer satisfaction rose by 23%.3.4 The line, staff, functional and lateral relationships in newstrThe human resources department, financial department, legal department, operations department and three division have different functions, such as: the human resources department is responsible for recruiting and training the employees; financial department is responsible for accounting, and so on. Black fine line represents Yum's functional structure.Yum line relationships have four layer, the blue line represents linear function, the first layer is the board of directors, the second is the CEO, the third floor is all headquarters, the fourth floor is three division.Yum s lateral relationships includes five headquarters, with green line shows that; And three division, black thick line shows that，the five headquarters and three division is lateral relationship.The staff relationships of Yum is the authority of the board of directors of the range is CEO, the scope of duties and powers of the CEO is all employees of five headquarters and three division.3.5 The relationship between authority, responsibility and delegationAuthority:Authority is the right to direct or guide the actions of others and extract from them responses that are appropriate to achieving the goals of the organization.The authority of the board of directors is guide to CEO's decision.Responsibility:Responsibility is the obligation placed on a person who has a certain position in an organization to perform a task, assignment or function.Three business divisions responsibility is obtain profit for Yum.Delegation:Delegation is the act of passing the responsibility to complete a task to another person.CEO empower three business division relatively independent autonomy andmanagement.ConclusionAccording to the report, discovered the Yum in the management of human resources have advantages and disadvantages. According to its deficiencies, in the following suggestions, The leader should use Shamrock Organization theory to strengthen leadership and Yum s organizational structure d better chose multidivisional structure. Yum s management of human resources,the most successful is staff training, due to Yum s excellent staff training, let the staff wastage rate of Yum was zero, this is wonderful. Now this is the best time to re-structure the organizations in order to get the most effective transmission of information; regarding the organization is a big surprise, so that the organization can develop more accelerate to achieve better results.Reference1.Amaratunga, D., Bailey, D., Sarshar.

Outcome 4: Assessment task 2Supplement to the case studyThe mergerDavid and Neil had their usual Friday meeting. This week the main area for discussion was the business’s need to re-structure. This issue had increased in priority when Neil explained that John Colbert Civil Engineering Contractors had approached him about a merger. John Colbert Senior was about to retire and the firm believed that continued success and growth could best be accomplished by creating a business that would cater fully for both the design and development of civil and structural engineering projects. One main reason behind this was that more and more clients wanted cost savings that could be derived from the synergy that would result from dealing with one organisation for design and development. Although both firms had reputations for high quality work, increasing competition and the need to make efficiency savings was making it more and more important that the two businesses looked to new possibilities for managing and developing. Over the past four years the two firms had worked together on a number of projects and they were about to start work on two major developments: the new leisure complex and the office block for the Scottish Executive, the latter of which was only secured as a result of the close working arrangement of the two firms. John and Neil were also aware that successful completion of this project could lead to more Scottish Executive projects.Currently John, a chartered civil engineer, employed two teams. Each team comprised a team leader, digger driver and three qualified builders. When working on large developments the two teams would work on site together, but be responsible for different aspects of the site development. For instance, in road development, one team would concentrate on road production whilst the other team concentrated on bridges or pathways, depending on the design specification.Neil agreed with John that, from a business perspective, a merger of the two companies could be beneficial in a number of ways:The merger would primarily be beneficial because the engineers would have the formal authority to manage the construction staff. At the moment, as designers, there was an informal acceptance that the design engineer was in charge of a given project on site. A merger would help clarify this relationship.John’s firm was based out of town and, in addition to the space for his equipment, he had a large office that would cope with the additional staff from Barbour Brown. In the past, engineering consultants had always preferred to be based in town centres. This was mainly to allow clients easy access to the engineers. As a result of new technology and computer networks, design communication tended to be done through phone calls and email. It was very rarely that clients visited the offices. When meetings were essential, these tended to take place either on site or at the client’s main office. The building that housed the offices of Barbour Brown was in a prime town location that could beredeveloped. Aware of this potential, Neil was eager to give the merger his full consideration.In addition to the re-location, John also has a small, but efficient, administration team that handles reception, secretarial support, accounts and wages. Again, savings could be made by reducing the administration costs currently incurred by having two administration sections. Neil was aware that the merger, should it go ahead, would create some redundancies.Although not always keen to make major changes, David did agree that, since their business needed re-structured, the merger would provide the ideal reason for making changes to the current method of working, and the proposal to merge should go ahead.David and Neil星期五都有例会。
本周主要要讨论的是公司重组问题。
这个问题被首先提出当Neil说,John Colbert（土木工程承包商）找过他关于合并的事情。
John Colbert年纪的了即将退休,公司认为,通过创建一个满足设计和开发的民用建筑工程项目业务，可以实现成功和发展。
这背后的一个主要原因是越来越多的客户想要的成本节约,而解决这个问题的办法可能是：协同效应,将设计和开发为一个组织。
虽然两家公司都因有高质量的工作而有声誉,但随着竞争越来越激烈并且需要节省效率，对两家公司而言可能性的管理和开发越来越重要。
在过去的四年里,这两家公司已经在许多项目中一起工作过,他们着手于两个主要发展:新休闲复杂和办公大楼为苏格兰行政院,对两家公司而言，后者只得需要保证工作安排的结果。
John and Neil也明白成功完成苏格兰行政院这项工程，可能有更多的项目。
目前约翰,一个特许土木工程师,聘用了两队。
每个团队有一个团队领导,挖掘机司机和三名合格建设者。
当有大型开发项目工作时，两队将在现场一起工作,但负责的发展项目不同。
例如,公路发展项目,一个团队将集中在道路而另一个团队根据设计的规范集中在桥梁或途径,。
Neil同意John,从商业角度来看,两家公司的合并可能是有益的方式有很多种:合并的优点主要是因为工程师们将会有正式权利来管理施工员工。
目前,作为设计师只有非正式的认可:设计工程师负责现场一个给定的项目。
合并将帮助澄清这种关系。
John的公司是建立在城外,除了设备有很大的空间,他还有一个很大的办公室,将应付额外的员工来自Barbour Brown。
