What are the traits of an effective organization?

Answer 1

An effective organization is generally one where communication flows up, down, and across the organization; where performance standards are established for all positions and those expectations are communicated to employees; where performance is continually measured and imrpovements to enhance performance are sought and implemented; and where decision-making is pushed down to the lowest appropriate level.

Good luck on your test. :)

Answer 2

Clearly defined goals, committed personnel, and transparent accountability. Oh, yeah, and a truckload of money. :-)
