- 0:00Welcome once again to home economics, today we will continue with the
- 0:04free course on business economics.
- 0:06In this chapter we will explain the most important principles of business organization The
- 0:11organization can be defined as an entity made up of members and resources that
- 0:16are directed to the achievement of a goal.
- 0:18In the corporate world, the main objective is practically the same: to make a profit
- 0:24for the owners of the company.
- 0:26To achieve this, good organizational management is necessary, understood as
- 0:30the process of structuring, planning and distributing the tasks that will be carried out among
- 0:35the workers we have, with the intention of obtaining the planned objectives
- 0:39in the most efficient way possible.
- 0:42For this, the company has a series of organizational principles that, depending
- 0:46on the structure of the company, will allow it to increase its organizational efficiency.
- 0:5012 are the main organizational principles:
- 0:541.
- 0:55Objective-oriented principle
- 0:56All activities and tasks of a company must revolve around a common objective,
- 1:01which establishes the mission or purpose that drives the company.
- 1:04Of course, it is essential that the proposed goal is of a general nature, so that the
- 1:09objective that the company has to achieve is common for all the departments of
- 1:13the organization.
- 1:15If you do not have a common goal, it is very likely that each department will establish its own
- 1:19objectives, which could be contradictory and affect the good performance of the company.
- 1:242.
- 1:25Principle of specialization
- 1:27Workers should specialize in performing a single job, taking advantage of the superior skill
- 1:32or advantage that each employee possesses.
- 1:35This process can greatly increase the productivity of the company.
- 1:39This is so because if a person always performs a specific task, over time he
- 1:43will develop skills and abilities, which will allow him to increase his productivity
- 1:49since he will produce the same thing in less time or vice versa, he will produce more in the same time.
- 1:533.
- 1:54Principle hierarchy
- 1:56Naturally, the hierarchy consists of establishing a center of authority from which the process
- 2:02of communication arises on the general provisions that must be followed to achieve
- 2:06the objectives.
- 2:08Indeed, this chain of command allows better control of both the tasks to be
- 2:12performed and the results obtained.
- 2:15In addition, it also allows the principles of authority and responsibility to be handled
- 2:19properly.
- 2:204.
- 2:21Principle of responsibility and authority
- 2:25Undoubtedly, there must be a correlation between authority and responsibility, because
- 2:29many times to fulfill certain responsibilities requires having a certain degree of authority.
- 2:35In addition, the responsibility will depend on the position and role played by each
- 2:39person within the company.
- 2:40Of course, although within an organization authority can be delegated,
- 2:45responsibilities can never be delegated since these fall on the worker who has been
- 2:50entrusted with the task and once a task is assigned to an employee, he has to perform it. .
- 2:555.
- 2:56Principle of unity of command
- 2:59When an organization establishes the principle of unity of command, each person must report
- 3:03to a single boss.
- 3:05If a worker is under the control of more than one person, there is a risk of confusion
- 3:09and conflict as he may receive contradictory orders from different superiors.
- 3:14Although it is logical, remember that the principle of unity of command must be done from
- 3:18top to bottom to make the organization strong and clear
- 3:216.
- 3:23Principle broadcast
- 3:25course on making proper dissemination of the obligations and responsibilities that
- 3:29correspond to each position, it is possible to maximize the advantages and use of the
- 3:34company's resources .
- 3:35All members of the organization participate in the dissemination process, starting
- 3:39with the top management and ending with the lowest levels of authority, that is,
- 3:43with the grassroots workers.
- 3:45It is recommended that the dissemination process be carried out in writing, because this facilitates
- 3:49both the verification and the control of the procedures and activities.
- 3:547.
- 3:55Principle of extension of control
- 3:56Obviously, this principle allows limiting the number of subordinates that
- 4:01a supervisor can review .
- 4:03It is recommended that a boss or supervisor has a maximum of five or six
- 4:07employees as long as the work to be supervised is of the same nature.
- 4:12In this way, an efficient control of tasks can be given.
- 4:14On the contrary, if the scope of control is disproportionate, it will affect the efficiency
- 4:19of workers due to slow communication with supervisors.
- 4:228.
- 4:25Principle of coordination
- 4:26Either way, coordination is established with the purpose of achieving balance
- 4:30within the organization.
- 4:31In the absence of coordination, there is the potential for different departments to set
- 4:36different goals.
- 4:38This means that the final objective of the company can only be achieved if an adequate coordination
- 4:42of the different activities and departments is carried out.
- 4:459.
- 4:47Principle of continuity
- 4:49It is necessary to think about the permanence of the company in the long term.
- 4:52For this, the organization must be dynamic and not static since from time to time
- 4:57changes occur both in the environment and within the company, so it
- 5:01is necessary for the company to make changes to adjust to the new conditions.
- 5:06It is also recommended that all processes are documented, so as not to depend
- 5:10on any person and continuity is always achieved regardless of the worker who performs
- 5:15the tasks
- 5:1610.
- 5:18Principle of flexibility
- 5:19After establishing the organizational structure, it must be considered that everything changes for a
- 5:23company , change the methods of production, marketing, etc ..
- 5:28Therefore, the company must be subject to changes and make the necessary adjustments.
- 5:33As a consequence, an organization will always be affected by changes, so it
- 5:37has to be dynamic and flexible enough not to affect its performance.
- 5:4111.
- 5:42Principle of efficiency
- 5:45The organization must be able to achieve the objectives of the company with a minimum cost.
- 5:50Cost and revenue standards are predetermined and performance must be in
- 5:55line with these objectives.
- 5:57The organization must also allow the achievement of job satisfaction for
- 6:01the various employees.
- 6:0212.
- 6:04Principle of communication
- 6:05Likewise, the communication process must take place in a fluid and constant way, so
- 6:11that it circulates at all levels and in both directions.
- 6:14That is, from top to bottom and from bottom to top.
- 6:17Company policies, customer complaints and suggestions
- 6:22, business programs and any type of information that is necessary for all workers to know
- 6:27must be communicated in both directions .
- 6:31Fundamental principles according to the organizational structure of the company
- 6:34Finally, it should be noted that depending on the organizational structure of the company,
- 6:38naturally not all principles are equally important, so these are
- 6:42usually grouped into two categories: basic and secondary principles.
- 6:47Clarify before continuing that these organizational structures are seen more in depth
- 6:51in the video that I leave you here on the labels.
- 6:54For example, if the company has a vertical structure, that is, a pyramid
- 6:58in which subordinates report to a single boss and so on until they reach the main boss
- 7:03of the company, the basic principles that will govern this organization will be that of authority
- 7:08and that of hierarchy.
- 7:11Among the secondary principles that can be given will be control and unity
- 7:15of command
- 7:17On the other hand, if the company has a horizontal structure, that is, it has
- 7:21a structure in which most of the middle managers and their functions,
- 7:25which causes senior management to be in direct contact with workers,
- 7:29the basic principles that will govern this organization will be the principle of specialization
- 7:34and the division of labor.
- 7:36The latter consists of decomposing a complex task into several simple ones in order to reduce
- 7:41efforts and be able to complete it in less time or produce more quantity in the same
- 7:46time.Within its secondary principles we can
- 7:49find that of coordination and departmentalization which is based on
- 7:55the grouping of tasks in different areas or departments based on various
- 7:59criteria such as geographic or functional.
- 8:03Before continuing if you want to see the different departmentalization criteria deepen,
- 8:07I leave you the video that I make here on the labels
- 8:10And finally if the company has a balanced organizational design in which
- 8:15a middle point is tried between the vertical developments and horizontal of a company,
- 8:19the basic principles that will govern will be motivation and participation.
- 8:24These principles are quite easy to explain, the one of participation consists of
- 8:29the degree of commitment that your workers have and the one of motivation in the degree of willingness
- 8:35they have to fulfill the objective Within the secondary principles we will find
- 8:39that of communication and dissemination. explained previously
