Answer to Question 1

An organization chart is a line diagram that depicts the broad outlines of an organization's structure and suggests the reporting relationships among employees. Organization charts give employees information about the major functions of departments, relationships among departments, channels of supervision, lines of authority, and certain position titles within units.

Answer to Question 2

The main activities and responsibilities of managers can be grouped into four areas, or functions.
1 . Planning is the forward-looking aspect of a manager's job; it involves setting goals and objectives and deciding how best to achieve them.
2 . Organizing focuses on distributing and arranging human and nonhuman resources so that plans can be carried out successfully.
3 . Leading involves influencing others to carry out the work required to reach the organization's goals.
4 . Controlling consists of regulating certain organizational activities to ensure that they meet established standards and goals.
