OVERVIEW

Are you intrigued by how organisational structures can impact workplace culture and productivity? In this interactive video, we'll explore the advantages and disadvantages of both centralised and decentralised structures. A centralised structure involves senior managers making key decisions at the centre, while a decentralised structure allows a wider range of people to make decisions.

To illustrate these concepts, we'll examine the case of Ronald Trenton, the owner of Trenton's Hotels. Ron's experience with a centralised management structure in his previous job inspired him to set up his own decentralised hotel chain. We'll use his example to analyse the differences between centralised and decentralised structures.

By the end of the video, you'll have a comprehensive understanding of the pros and cons of centralised and decentralised structures and their impact on a business. Join me as we explore the intricacies of organisational structures and discover the best practices for your business.
