Organization and management analyses in Araratian Patriarchal Diocese

Abstract

The main objective of the project is to conduct an organization and management analyses and to come up with proposal of effective and adequate control mechanisms for APD’s activities. The research was merely concentrated on investigation of particular control issues, it rather aimed to provide the organization with effective tools and mechanisms on overall organization level. There were two reasons for this. First, most of the problems identified by the research were not limited by the scope of activities of certain departments. Second, APD has not any clearly established separation of functional activities so this approach will help the organization to coordinate its operations in a functionally oriented manner. The research group developed two alternative solutions of the problem and recommends the one which is by the research group’s understanding is more fundamental and long run oriented. The alternative recommended will provide the organization with reliable and strong tools to overcome the identified problems and successfully cope with possible future ones in the areas of Human Resource Control, Financial Resource Control and Planning, Physical Resource Control, and information Flow Control.
