How Would David Establish A Chain Of Command

Bea,
David could utilize one of the organizational structures discussed in the text, to establish a chain of command and/or assign each assistant athletic trainer job duties and responsibilities. If David does decide to accept Judy’s advice and develops an organizational chart it should follow the guidelines of a matrix structure. The vertical elements of this chart show the chain of command in the program. The horizontal elements depict project teams that take advantage of the athletic trainers’ specialization in certain areas. The matrix structure reduces coordination problems and enhances economic efficiency by assigning only the necessary number of athletic trainers to any given project. Ensuring that no one is “stepping on each other’s
toes.”
