Principles of Organizational Planning

• All plans must flow from other plans. Short-range plans must be congruent with long-range plans. • Planning in all areas of the organization must follow the mission, philosophy, and goals of the overall organization. • Planning involves the same process regardless of the period involved. • The length of the plan is determined by what actions are necessary to make the plan successful. • All planning must include an evaluation step and requires periodic reevaluation and prioritization. • All people and organizational units affected by a plan should be included in the planning.

laissez-faire leadership

• Is PERMISSIVE with little or no control. • Motivates by SUPPORT when requested by the group or individuals. • LITTLE OR NO DIRECTION. • Uses upward and downward communication between members of the group. • Disperses decision making throughout the group. • Places emphasis on the group. • DOES NOT CRITICIZE.

Authority-Power Gap

• The right to command does not ensure that employees will follow orders • The more power subordinates perceive a manager to have, the smaller the gap between the right to expect certain things and the resulting fulfillment of those expectations by others • The negative effect of a wide authority-power gap is that organizational chaos may develop
