Tom Burns and G. M. Stalker, (1961) are famous for establishing the distinction between mechanistic and organic approaches to organization and management. They illustrated that when change in environment becomes the order of the day, as when changing technological and market conditions pose new problems and challenges, open and flexible styles of organization and management are required (Morgan, 2006).

Management is seen to engineer an organizational culture and identity, which impels individuals to take responsibility to rationalize and intensify their own work activities, i.e. "to work smarter to work harder". The target of this control is not individuals' behavior, but their emotional commitments, modes of thinking and identities.

Flatter structures reduce the number of opportunities for promotion and the effects of ongoing restructuring include insecurity and increasing workloads. These changes are having an impact on people's morale, motivation and willingness to deliver high performance.

CASE STUDY - LESPORT HOTEL

The organization features all the services and facilities you would expect to find in a four star Caribbean resort, as well as spa treatments, therapies, fitness and relaxation classes, water sports etc, in an all-inclusive package.

The previous organizational structure can be classified as a traditional machine bureaucracy with a tall hierarchy, and high centralization. Decisions were made at the strategic apex, consisting of divisional heads such as the rooms division manager, deputy general manager and general manager.

In order for organizations to gain a competitive advantage in today's marketplace which offers endless choice, there is a need for flexibility in their product and service delivery. This can be achieved through a leaner decentralized organisational structure that can adapt to the environment and the ever-changing technological advancements.
