Hi Janani,
Job evaluation is very important to select the right person for the right job, monitoring the required output within a timeframe, and ensuring the expected output. Most companies hardly outline the job description, and confusion starts even at this stage. A precise job description also prevents a person from stepping out of their purview, thus avoiding power dynamics.
I am attaching a Job Content Questionnaire prepared for Valdosta State University, which I believe is beneficial for this purpose. This will be useful for you as well.
Functional structure is highly effective as the organizational hierarchy is fixed based on the functions performed by individuals, and the structure is not solely determined by the positions they hold. In many industries lacking a functional structure, conflicts between technical and nontechnical top executives on minor issues can impede organizational progress. In a functional structure, importance is placed on individuals carrying out important and pivotal roles, and the hierarchy is structured accordingly. Therefore, the fundamental principle in a functional structure is to arrange the Organization Chart (OC) according to functional importance.
All the best to you,
