Internal Organization
A I: Identify the organizational culture as advantage and indicate
why.
Companies often rely on the competing values framework as a tool to indicate the type of culture a
company operates under. This can be used by the company to predict the most ef 케 cient
management style. There are four cultures described within the competing values framework. These
include Clan, Adhocracy, Hierarchy, and Market. Regarding the company in the task scenario, Clan
culture is the dominant culture due to open communication which leads to high cooperation and
respect throughout the company. The US company also utilizes teamwork and collaboration. This is
evident because the company employs and utilizes the diverse expert opinions of Indian fishermen.
The Clan culture will contribute to the long-term development and success of the company and is
therefore an advantage.
A II: Identify the organizational structure as an advantage or
disadvantage and indicate why.
The company in the scenario has a decentralized and flat structure. This is an advantage for the
fishing boat manufacturer. Creativity and collaboration will be promoted in the organizational
structure. Another advantage to this type of structure is the availability of the founders to
communicate at any time with all team members. This accessibility will encourage
collaboration
between the team members and the founders. Success through market entry will be ensured by the
innovative culture and decentralization of the company. The structure will help the company with
extensive research, adjustment, testing, and releasing the company’s product. Fishing is one of
India’s primary industries. There is potential for the company to gain a substantial market share
quickly.
