Using various theories and concepts with academic literature, kindly critique (analyse and evaluate) the organisational design, structure, and networks relating to a downstream oil and gas organisation in Nigeria with a hierarchical structure with the purpose to remain a growing and vibrant company continuously improving on our services to meet the energy needs of the manufacturing, transportation, commerce and agriculture industries.’ . Also analyse the internal and external networks, and the cultural, political, economic, and social influences that affect the organisation’s design and structure.
The critique of your chosen organisation should include an outline of the way the organisation is designed and structured and include the key internal and external networks of the organisation. You should analyse the power relationships in the organisation and between the organisation and external organisations. It is also important that you take note of the requirement to ‘critique’. This means that you should review the organisation in relation to its purpose and make supported judgements about the extent to which the design and structure allow it to achieve its purpose. You might identify elements of the design and structure which allow the organisation to meet its purpose but you may also identify elements which do not and offer reasons for both which may be grounded in or informed by the theory.
