Organizational Structure
The organizational structure refers to the way in which positions within the business are arranged. They have some key elements such as the span of control which refers to the number of subordinates working under a superior or manager. Other element is the hierarchy as it refers to the levels of management in the business, and the chain of command that is the way authority is organized.
The organizational structure of the UWP Mission to Loyka is tall and centralized, with several levels of hierarchy and a narrow span of control. This means that the Commander, General Ron Meiri, replaced in 2011 by General Diane Pierce, is the manager that correspond to the higher level of hierarchy and has a span of control of 4 as she is responsible of the first regimen, the second regiment, the civil engineering group and the combat support group; these four correspond to the next level of hierarchy down the chain of command. Then the civil engineering group has a span of control of 2 as it is responsible for the civil engineering and the transportation, while the combat support group has a span of control of 3 as it is responsible for communications, combat support and medical support. Also, the first regiment and second regiment have a span of control of 2 as each one is responsible of their first and second battalions.Each battalion is divided into companies, companies into platoons, and platoons into squads. Being the squads the lowest level of hierarchy. This type of methods allows the leader of the organization to take over control and supervise in a more effective way their subordinates. This organization was not flexible, but it ensured that orders were clearly understood and always followed.
