Even though there is no such thing as the one right organization. There are only organizations, each of which has distinct strengths, distinct limitations and specific applications. A company’s goals and its plans to achieve them dictate its activities because when managers group tasks that are similar in terms of tasks, processes, or skills, they are grouping them by the principle of functional similarity, or similarity of activity. An advantage of work specialization is that work can be performed more efficiently if employees are allowed to specialize, and managers ask what work activities are necessary to accomplish these goals.
Organizing Process According to Plunkett, Allen, & Attner (2013) Management: Meeting and Exceeding Customer Expectations. The sorting out procedure obliges directors to draw on and incorporate various major hierarchical ideas.

The relative point of interest impact is because of specialization increases coming about because of misuse of variable blessing contrasts crosswise over nations, and this relates to the conventional impact. The division of work impact emerges if the level of outsourcing inside of an industry influences the division of work crosswise over firms (p.58).
