Internal alignment: the relationships between the jobs within a single organization. The relatio(cid:374)ships a(cid:373)o(cid:374)g differe(cid:374)t jo(cid:271)s i(cid:374)side a(cid:374) orga(cid:374)izatio(cid:374) for(cid:373) a jo(cid:271) stru(cid:272)ture that should support the orga(cid:374)izatio(cid:374)"s strategy, support the workflow, and motivate behaviour toward organization objectives. Pay structure: the array of pay rates for different work or skills within a single organization; the number of levels, the differentials in pay between the levels, and the criteria used to determine these differences creates the structure. The orga(cid:374)izatio(cid:374)"s strateg(cid:455) i(cid:374)di(cid:272)ates ho(cid:449) it pla(cid:374)s to a(cid:272)hie(cid:448)e its purpose; i(cid:374)ter(cid:374)al jo(cid:271) stru(cid:272)tures alig(cid:374)ed to the strateg(cid:455) help to achieve it. Workflow: process by which goods and services are delivered to the customer. The structure should support the efficient flow of that work and the design of the organization. Merk created a cross-functional team responsible for a distinct geographic area that provided a relationship-building approach to selling products.
