Describe as best you can the organization where you work $($or one you have known in the past$)$ in terms of how subunits are differentiated. Does this approach to structure appear to be effective or ineffective? Why? If the organization's structure has some shortcomings, what are they, and how would you re$-$structure it$?$

Describe a situation or two that you have observed, or been a part of$,$ at work $($or on a team or club or formal group that you were a member of$)$ that involved use of the integrative mechanisms we have discussed. Which mechanisms were they, and how were they applied?

Which of the above integration attempts worked well? Which worked poorly? Why? What do you think could have been done to integrate the organization more effectively?
