Let us explain formal and informal organization individually.
FORMAL ORGANIZATION:
Formal organization means the intentional structure of rods informally organized
enterprise. Formal organization must be flexible. Formal organization does not mean
that there is anything inflexible. If a manager is to
organize well, the structure must furnish an environment in which individual performance, both present and future contributes most effectively to group goals.
Structure/ Diagram of Formal Organization:
INFORMAL ORGANIZATION
Informal organizational is define by different authors one says, Informal organization
is any joint personal activity without conscious joint purpose, even though
contributing to joint results. Thus informal relation ships established in the group of
people playing chess during lunch time may aid in the achievement of organization
goals. It is much easier to ask for help on an organization problem from someone you
know personally, even if he or she may be in different departments than from some
one you know only as a name on an organization chart. Another author describes
informal organization as a network of personal and social relationships not required
by the formal organization but arising spontaneously as people but associate with one another.
