4.1.2 Organizing: For the attainment of objectives determined during the planning process, action is required. It is the process of dividing total work into convenient small tasks or duties, grouping of such duties in the form of positions, grouping of various positions into departments, assigning duties to individual positions and delegating authority and responsibility to each individual so that the task is carried out as planned. The process of creating various positions is known as organizing and it is clearly explained in the organisation structure. The organisation chart clearly indicates the superior-subordinate relationship exists in the organisation. The process of organizing consists of:
Determining the activities to be performed to achieve the desired objectives.
Dividing the work into various small convenient tasks.
Defining the role of each and every individual.
Assigning duties to each and every individual.
Delegating authority to the people to whom duties assigned and
Fixing responsibility for performance.
4.1.3 Staffing: According to the classical approach of management, staffing was treated as a part of organizing function. But due to growing importance of human resource management, the modern management personalities consider it as a separate function. After determining the role and relationship of various positions in the organisation it becomes inevitable to select and place the most competent person on each position. Thus it is the process of filling all positions in the organisation with the right people at right time.
The process of staffing consists of:
Determining the quality and quantity of workforce required for the organization.
Identifying the gap between manpower required and available.
Finding out the sources from where people can be selected.
Recruiting and selecting the people.
Placing the selected people in the right jobs.
Training and developing them.
Fixing final compensation and
Appraising them periodically to maintain them for longer period of time.
4.1.4 Directing: Selecting the right person for each job will not bring success to the organisation.
