All sorts of businesses has to have a structure of some sort which means the business could be really big or small could be voluntary, private, public, national or global business but it still have to have a structure for it to run smoothly. By forming a business structure this allows the workers who to take instructions from and who is in control of them and People need to also know who they can turn to for support or discuss any concerns or issues bothering them. The type of structure that that most business use is a Hierarchal structure. A business could choose to act in Autocratic or Democratic way. An Autocratic owner tends to act in dictatorship manner. This is associated with giving orders and little to know involving people down the hierarchal structure with decisions. Managers who just want to get the work done would prefer this approach. Managers who encourage creative and positive thinking would most likely go for a democratic approach to obtain these results. A democratic owner would involve everyone with decisions and try to make everyone involved. No particular structure is right out the two because a Democratic owner would have to be Autocratic sometimes, for example when the employees and the workers don’t do so well on a task he might have to be firm and give orders.
