about changing to tall structre

for advantages i said - it may save her costs and managers won’t have as wide of a span of control

disadvantages - had to fill the new roles (costs) and had to go through more layers of communication therefore taking longer

Same I said smaller span of control so line managers will be able to monitor staff more closely. I linked that to total quality management / kaizen. I also discussed centralisation and decentralisation as well as delegation and delayering.

What did u put for your 12 marker points?
