Marketing
In week four, the business that you created for the course project gathered information from the environment and set goals. It's time to decide on how you want to organize your company and to hire managers to oversee your employees. The media below has five candidates that you can click on and read about. Ultimately, you'll need to hire two of these candidates.
Always remember that the objectives decided upon in planning influence the decisions you make during the other functions of management. From here on out, every decision should be made with your end goals in mind.
Goals while Planning
o Identify an organizational structure for your company.
o Choose from functional, divisional, matrix, and geographic structures.
o Articulate two reasons why this structure fits the goals and focus of your company.
o View the background of the candidates below by clicking on their picture.
• Apply what you've learned about staffing and choose two managers that you believe will help you achieve your goals.
o For each new manager, explain how their background and diversity fits with the team that you're trying to build.
o For each new manager, evaluate why they're a good match with your chosen organizational structure.
It's very important in this assignment that you connect the goals set in planning with the organization and staffing decisions. Take time to explain how each choice matches your vision for the company.
