WHY?
This is because there is a need, in an
organization where unfamiliar people are
working together, to know exactly who is in
charge.
Communication is everything!
The lines of communication not only pass up and
down the hierarchy but also run from side to side.
Example: Change in music programme, the Music
Officer needs to tell the Visitor Services Officer, also
to information and ticket office
The culture of an organization is thought to
impact on an organization’s efficiency and

whose reasons for being there may be social
rather than commercial.
