CHAPTER 2: MANAGEMENT ORGANIZATION OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION

Physical Education Objectives

Physical education objectives is divided into three distinct

learning domains:
Cognitive Affective Psychomotor

Physical fitness development Motor skill development

 Overall objectives of Physical Education Design of education for the future Empowers individuals to learn about their world and

be active participants within it

To create an environment that stimulates selected

movement experiences resulting in desirable

responses that contribute to the optimal development

of the individuals potentialities in all phases of life

Developing Management Structure

Structure refers to the framework that includes title of

positions, role assignments, task allocations, functions, and relationships.

Planning, developing, organizing, and reengineering

the structure for a physical education program are

important management responsibilities

 Guidelines for developing a management blueprint: 1. Review the program and its objectives at least

twice a year because realignments in duties and

responsibilities may be necessary
2. Design each position so that a short label describes

its primary responsibilities

3. Assign each position clear cut duties,

responsibility, and authority, so that each position holder will possess freedom to act

4. Establish line and staff positions that will enable

management to realize the advantages of functional departmentalization as well as centralization and

decentralization
5. Design each position so that the position holder can

make maximal use of his or her knowledge, understanding, talents and skills
6. Design positions so that decision-making authority is

as close as possible to the scene of the action

7. Give managerial staff responsibility for as many

positions as possible

Principles for Management Organization and Structure

Clarify the delegation of authority and responsibility To avoid overlapping authority Management work may be most effectively organized by

function
Unity of command maintains that all personnel engaged in a

particular type of work should function under a single authority or supervisor

 Span of control should be considered in organizational structure

The number of subordinates who can be supervised

adequately by one individual

Successful management depends on communication Saves time, helps avoid waste and duplication, and promotes

cooperation among departments and staff

Coordination and cooperation among various departments in

organization
Keeps each subsystem well informed and working together in

complementary and synergistic manner

 The manager must be an effective leader

Staff or task specialization aids effective management

Organization must perform many different tasks that

require the abilities of various area specialists (marketing, sport information, etc.)
Duties and rights of personnel Each employees should have a precise job

description and a current policy and procedure manual or have guidelines readily accessible

 Authority must be commensurate with responsibilities, and lines

of authority must be clearly drawn

Illustrated in a form of organizational chart Organization and social purpose cannot be separated There is no single correct form of organization Factors as size, human resources, and economic constraints

often determine the most appropriate organizational structure

for a particular situation

Procedure for The Development of Organizational Charts

Identify the objectives of the organization Objectives determine the structure that must be

developed
Arrange objectives into meaningful functional units
Requires assessing the organization with its

differentiated parts and units and organizing it

Reduces friction and fragmentation and brings about a

closely coordinated, smoothly functioning organization

 Arrange the identified functional units into appropriate

management units, such as department

Represent the most effective and meaningful

relationships for achieving the goals of the organization

Prepare a model of the structure of the organization and

perform a trial run

To make sure that the model represents the best

management structure for the organization, it should be used initially on a trial basis

 Revise the model in light of input received Views from personnel within and outside the

organization should be sought and the model revised

Evaluate the final design and assign staff who work within

the organization to appropriate functional units

Each member of the organization can see where and how

he or she fits into the total organizational structure
