Organizational structures provide a foundation for the organization in terms of communication, decision making, power distribution, etc. At the end of the day organizations fall into one of three major categories in terms of their formal organizational structure: functional, divisional, matrix. For this assignment, you will utilize the organization you are currently or have worked for to answer the following questions:

1. List an organization in which you have or are currently working.

2. What organizational structure does the organization embody? Justify this answer.

3. Describe the benefits of the organizational structure in terms of your experience in the organization.

4. Describe the drawbacks of the organizational structure in terms of your experience in the organization.

5. Would the organization benefit from a change in structure? Why or why not?

6. How does the organizational structure support the organization's culture? Explain thoroughly.

Green Vehicle​ Inc., manufactures electric cars and small delivery trucks. It has just opened a new factory where the C1 car and the T1 truck can both be manufactured. To make either​ vehicle, processing in the assembly shop and in the paint shop are required. It takes 1/25 of a day and ​1/75 of a day to paint a truck of type T1 and a car of type C1 in the paint​ shop, respectively. It takes 1/45 of a day to assemble either type of vehicle in the assembly shop. A T1 truck and a C1 car yield profits of $325 and $225​, respectively, per vehicle sold.

Formulate the linear program that provides the combination of T1 and C1 that maximizes yield, clearly specifying (a) variables, (b) objective function and (c) constraints.

Design specifications for an arrow are that they each weigh 100 ± 10 grams. The process to make the arrows has a standard deviation of four units.

a. What is the process capability index? Assume that the process is centered with respect to specifications. Round your intermediate and final answers to 4 decimal places (e.g., .12345 would be rounded as .1235, not .1234).

b. Suppose the process average shifts to 92. Calculate the new process capability index. Round your intermediate and final answers to 4 decimal places (e.g., .12345 would be rounded as .1235, not .1234).

c. What is the probability of defective output after the process shift? Round "z" values to 2 decimal places. Round probabilities to 4 decimal places (so a probability of .12345 would be entered as .1235, not .1234 or 12.345% or something else).

On Franco’s first day of work as an entry-level account manager at an advertising firm, he had lunch with three women who also were entry-level account managers at the firm. During lunch, the three women made comments to Franco that they appreciated how “fit” he was and that they were glad to have a male colleague who was “easy on the eyes” and “probably great in the sack.” Franco is very conservative about sexuality and these comments made him feel very uncomfortable. Franco quit his new job immediately after lunch and filed a sexual harassment suit against the advertising firm claiming that he experienced a hostile work environment.

Using the legal rule for determining whether a hostile work environment exists, identify two reasons why Franco is unlikely to win his lawsuit.

As part of a discussion of a proposed major restructuring, you point out that major change attempts work best when there is a “burning platform" (i.e. a great sense of urgency to change). Your boss disagrees, saying, “That’s motivating with fear. We need to change before the platform is on fire.” Take a position for or against your boss’s argument.
