What are the Basic Principles of Organisational Structures?

Clarity and simplicity: The structure of the company should be easy to comprehend for all employees. A clear definition of roles and responsibilities promotes efficiency by avoiding misunderstandings and duplication of work.

Efficiency: The organisational structure should be designed to make optimal use of resources. This includes the targeted allocation of labour, materials, and financial resources to maximise productivity.
