Not only that, they are the ones who assesses the overall direction and strategy of business. The board directors selects the officers for the board. Fayol 's principle “division of work” is mainly done by the board of directors as they divide the work into specialized tasks and assign responsibilities to specific individuals. They determine who does what work’ in the business. In CAM Resources Berhad, the selection process is normally depends on who is willing to do the job and who are more qualified and can be trusted in maintaining the vision, mission and goals of the organization. The board of director monitors and control function of the business. Through division of work, employee becomes more specialized in producing products and will be able to focus on skills into becoming more efficient in the area of organization rather than in several areas. Dividing a task or activity into smaller or minute parts so as to ensure that each part is managed with great ease and efficiency is known as division of
These smaller groups are assigned to a particular field of service. Each semi-autonomous group has a group head who is designated as the Executive officer or Vice-President of that particular section. The top executive of a specific section only manages the general activities such as hiring and budgeting of that particular section only.

There should be strong relationship between the two divisions. Employees working in core business or existing products should be equal priority and periodic rewards so that they don’t feel left out.

Organisational values can be described as a “belief that a specific mode of conduct is preferable to an opposite or contrary mode of conduct” (Rokeach, 1973). Some organisations describe them as their ‘guiding beacons’ whilst others describe them as part of their philosophy. As Diageo explains ‘Our values are not just words on a page – they are in our DNA. They underpin everything we do and are reflected in the day-to-day behaviour of the company.’ –
Fiduciary duty: A fiduciary duty is a legal obligation to act in the best interest of a client or broader corporate entity.

I feel that after my research I can justify that Merlin Entertainments operates by the divisional (diversified) organisational type. I feel this way because the central headquarters of Merlin Entertainments supports a number of different divisions and venues that operate differently and in different locations throughout the world, Merlin have multiple divisions e.g. Alton Towers, Thorpe Park and Madame Tussauds. These operate throughout the world in numerous locations. Merlin Entertainments have a central board of directors who make the decisions that will affect Merlin Entertainments on a wide scale and all of their divisions respectively. These board of directors have the responsibility to make the correct decisions so that Merlin Entertainments
The top management is the one who look after the entire bureaucracy. Weber suggests the bureaucracy within organisations are more rigid and authoritative, tend to be centralised, highly specialised, do not encourage empowerment, and high formalisation (Best, 2002). As a results, Weber’s conception of power connected with his interest in bureaucracy and office hierarchy (Sadan, 2004). Many organisations rely on bureaucracies to operate whether it is private or public sector such as government, hospitals, and schools. Therefore, everyone must follows the standardised procedures in order to produces similar results in the productivity and to promote the efficient attainment of the organization 's
Here, I would like to apply Fayol’s Principle as the management approaches. Fayol recognized there was no limit to the principles of management. And, Fayol’s work was one of the primary comprehensive statements of a general management theory. He proposed that there were six primary functions of management and fourteen principles of management. Based on his point of view, a manager must attain proper feedback process in order to make necessary adjustments and must analyze the deviations.

Definition of emerging market In terms of investors emerging markets are used to describe developing countries, in which investment would be expected to achieve higher returns but it would be ac-companied by a higher risk. Emerging markets are between developed markets. “Even index providers cannot agree on precisely what constitutes an emerging mar-ket.

Espri de Corps; where a business will promote uniqueness and unity within a workforce and Scalar Chain; where employees will always be made aware of their place and role within the business, ( Manktelow 2015). Whereas Taylor called his theory ‘Scientific Management’ and overly stressed the need for efficiency and restricted himself to the activity of production within a firm. It could even be said that Taylor had a micro-approach due to his restrictions within a factory and Fayol had a macro approach as his principles are adaptable to all fields of management. However, Taylor did conduct several experiments earlier on in his studies testing the task sytem within a firm focusing on all aspects of production such as the time needed, materials, labour and what was the quickest, most-effective way of producing the good in question, ( Taylor 1911)
