Seminar paper from the year 2015 in the subject Business economics - Personnel and Organisation, grade: 16, National University of Modern Languages, Islamabad (NUML), course: MS-Business Management, language: English, abstract: In line with Taylor, Fayol, and Weber's conceptualizations, traditional organization structures are essentially based upon the fundamentals of division of labor, need for supervision, and centralization or unity of command.
