What is Organizational Design and Why Do Start-Ups Need to Do It?

IT Is the Framework that aging life or geriatric care management agency use for their business to:

• Distinguish power and authority roles and

1.Organizational Structure

First, you tackle organizational structure.

Organizational structure is a system used to define a hierarchy within an organization. It identifies each job, its function and where it reports to within the organization. … The structure is illustrated using an organizational chart.

Second, you do your organization’s design

2. Once an organization has chosen its structure, you can move on to selecting the design. Organizational Design is the process by which managers assess the tasks, functions, and goals of the business, allowing them to make decisions about how to group people together to best and most efficiently achieve their objectives.

In the start-up aging life or geriatric management business, it is what is the Care Manager’s director’s role, job description and how their power and authority flows down to care managers. It follows with the care manager’s who report to her /him, it describes what is their roles, job descriptions and how they take direction from the Care Manager director, their supervisor. You should also add clinical supervision here. Then you design your Administrative Assistant’s role and marketing director’s role if you are going to hire one.

Create a Flow Chart

3. Following that, a flow-chart or organizational chart with administration and roles mapped out.
