CHAPTER 1
SUPERVISION FUNDAMENTALS
Responding to a Supervisory Dilemma: Organizations are changing and the traditional
organizational structure is still evident, but some organizations are changing the traditional
structure. Google uses a cross-functional organizational structure that is more of a team approach
to management and is structured horizontally. Maintaining a small-company feel and providing
customizable employee benefit programs are important parts of Google’s success.
