Organisational Theory Physical

The first main point in Sportscool's physical structure is that it has multiple bases, Sportscool has a  main office  and the company keeps most of its equipment at a hall near the miners welfare ground this is also where Sportscool hosts its birthday parties and holiday clubs.

Having multiple venues has its advantages and disadvantages, the disadvantages being that equipment that is needed could be at the place so it means going from one place to another to get something ie registers or footballs. An advantage of this is that the company has room to expand and that it always has room for bigger and better equipment.

Orgonisational Theory Technology

As Sportscool  goes into various schools and clubs, technology is limited as their is simply no need for it  one of the reasons for this is that some sessions are outside and if it rains it will be ruined,

All of the coaches have a phone to keep in contact with each other and Carl whether it is in a session or not. there is also a phone in Carl's office


Some of sportscool's equipment is advance, to save space, time and ease there are two full size blow up football nets which can be used inside or out, which is really useful as if there is a session outside and it rains it can be taken down quickly and brought inside.


Also sportscool has a website which is very important as it makes you accessible to a wider audience and also a different way to communicate with people, this is also makes you accessible on the move with a smart phone that can receive email 

Organisational Theory Culture

CULTURE     




Power Culture- 
  • strong leaders are needed to distribute resources. Leaders are firm,but fair and generousto loyal followers. If badly managed there is rule by fear, abuse of power for personal gain, and political intrigue.



Achievement Culture-
  • Rewards results, not unproductive efforts. work teams are self directed. Rules and sructure sustaining energy and enthusiasm over time.


Role Culture-

  •  rule of law with clear responsibility and reward system. provides stability, justice and effiency.  weakness is impersonal operating procedures and a stifling of creativity and innovation.




Support Culture-

  • Employee is valued as a person as well as a worker. Employee harmony is important  Weakness is a possible internal commitment without an external task focus








Sportscool's culture is a blend of different cultures for example it is a power culture because Carl is the boss and he is in charge of what all the coaches do, he is firm and fair, This is good because you know who the boss is and there are firm and only one set of orders and there is quick feedback, The bad points of this culture is that it is only one persons opinion so it could be badly managed. It also relies very heavily on one person who can get tired and poorly and also busy if that is the case their is nobody else to turn too.
