Abstract

Hierarchy refers to the position in the organization, that is, to the relations of subordination (superiority and subordination). The existence of hierarchies indicates the existence of an authority against which there is a hierarchy or non-hierarchy, that is, a freer and more democratic structure. Hierarchical structure has always been present in all spheres of society and as such is synonymous with setting strict rules and enforcing them. The topic of this final paper therefore studies the relationships between higher and lower levels of management in general and executives, comparing these relationships between two more opposing structures. The formal distribution of power and authority differs significantly in these two structures, so they differ shallow from deep organizations whose characteristics are presented in the paper. Most organizations today have a hierarchical structure headed by an executive director. Within the hierarchical structure, there are sectors and departments headed by lower-level directors who manage the organization and make lower-level decisions. On the other hand, we find heteroarchic structures today through large multinational companies, ie the heteroarchic structure has several centers that operate and function independently.

Hierarchy refers to the position in the organization, that is, to the relations of subordination (superiority and subordination). The existence of hierarchies indicates the existence of an authority against which there is a hierarchy or non-hierarchy, that is, a freer and more democratic structure. Hierarchical structure has always been present in all spheres of society and as such is synonymous with setting strict rules and enforcing them. The topic of this final paper therefore studies the relationships between higher and lower levels of management in general and executives, comparing these relationships between two more opposing structures. The formal distribution of power and authority differs significantly in these two structures, so they differ shallow from deep organizations whose characteristics are presented in the paper. Most organizations today have a hierarchical structure headed by an executive director. Within the hierarchical structure, there are sectors and departments headed by lower-level directors who manage the organization and make lower-level decisions. On the other hand, we find heteroarchic structures today through large multinational companies, ie the heteroarchic structure has several centers that operate and function independently.
