The final result of the Organising Process is that the structure of the Organization is created. What sequence of steps is followed by managers for this:

(A) Departmentalization

(B) Identification and Division of work

(C) Establishing reporting relationships

(D) Assignment of Duties

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Option 1 -> Starts with Departmentalization before identifying work, which is illogical as you cannot create departments without knowing what work needs to be done.

Option 2 -> Places establishing reporting relationships before departmentalization, which is incorrect as you cannot define reporting structures before grouping activities into departments.

Option 3 -> Follows the logical sequence: first identify and divide work, then group into departments, assign duties to positions, and finally establish reporting relationships.

Option 4 -> Begins with establishing reporting relationships before even identifying work, which is impractical and reverses the organizing process.

Hence, Option 3: (B), (A), (D), (C) -> The organizing process follows a logical sequence: (B) Identification and Division of work comes first to determine what tasks exist, (A) Departmentalization groups similar activities together, (D) Assignment of Duties allocates specific responsibilities to positions, and finally (C) Establishing reporting relationships creates the chain of command and authority structure -> correct
