Organizational Effectiveness Paper
Organization effectiveness is the efficiency of an organization, group, or company can
meet its goals (Six Sigma Staff, 2017). How an organization produces its set quota of products,
how much waste it produces, or how efficient its processes fall under organizational
effectiveness. There are positives and negatives to both bureaucratic and agile organizations, the
traditional bureaucratic nature is somewhat dated in its approach. Most law enforcement
agencies that work directly with the public require a more modern approach, as agile
organizations focus on continuous learning, teamwork, and change. This paper will discuss
bureaucratic and agile organizations, examples of each within team member’s organizations, the
advantages, and disadvantages of each, explain why community-oriented policing needs an agile
organization to be successful, and finally, identify the nine steps of management by objectives.
Bureaucratic Organization vs Agile Organization. Some organizations believe that
getting an employee to work on a task and to keep them working effectively requires ruling with
an iron fist. The organization is demanding and requires that the employee maintain productivity
at all costs. This type of leadership can be effective, but it can also be very frustrating to the
employees. This could also produce an unhealthy working relationship with management and the
employee.
Bureaucratic Organization. (Emilio, 2018, para. 1) says that 85% of employees are
emotionally detached from their job and goes on to say that a bureaucratic organization is the
main reason the detachment has occurred.
, As stated earlier, the way that an organization is run will have an impact on its
employee’s temperament. Most employees prefer to work in an organization that promotes
comradery.
“The bureaucratic organizational business model is characterized by standardized
processes and strict rules. Each employee has a clearly defined role and responsibilities” Picincu
(2018, para. 2). She goes on to say that bureaucratic organizations treat their employees very
impersonal and that their traits have nothing to do with the ability to perform their job (para. 2).
Picincu (2018, para. 3) says that under the bureaucratic process employees are hired formally.
They also have formal testing, and the promotions are based on merit, not seniority. They are
specialized in their field, so the company usually has hundreds of job titles due to the number of
specialty areas. Also noted, Whisenand (2014, p. 264) says that the bureaucratic organization
works from the top-down.
Agile Organization. An agile organization is focused on ensuring that the people or
customers are happy with the outcome of the work performed. So, the agile organization will
work to ensure that they have met the customer needs. The agile company has traits that are
different from the bureaucratic organization because they seek to include the employee or team in
the day-to-day system of operation so that they can add to the progress of completing the goal.
“Higher team morale, increased productivity, greater ability to manage changing priorities, and
faster time to market than they were experiencing before” (Emilio, 2018, para. 1). Whisenand
(2014, p. 269) says that the values keep the agile organization grounded so that it will not lose the
principles that were developed from the beginning of the organization. Whisenand (2014, p.
269-271) list 10 traits of an agile organization. They are value, vision, size, speed,
boundarylessness, stretch, simplification, rethinking, continuous improvement, team leadership.
All these traits in the agile organization help to make working in this type of organization easier
