Organising is a process of defining and grouping of the activities of the enterprise and establishing authority-responsibility relationship.
Process of organising includes following steps:
(i) Identification and division of work: The first step in the process of organizing involves identification and division of work that has to be done in accordance with the predetermined plans.
(ii) Departmentalisation: Once the work has been divided into small and manageable activities then those activities which are similar in nature, are grouped together. Such group facilitate specialisation. This grouping process is called departmentalisation.
(iii) Assigning duties: The third step under organising deals with assigning the roles and responsibilities to the personnel. Under each department work is allocated to different members as per their skill and ability. While assigning the duties it must be ensured that the best suited and proficient person is selected for the work.
(iv) Establishing the relationship: Any organisation needs a proper hierarchic structure to work efficiently. Every person should know whom he is working under and to whom he needs to report. Establishment of such relationship helps in smooth functioning of an organisation.
