Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hierarchical levels distinguish between tall and flat organizations. Tall organizations have multiple levels of hierarchy and a narrow span of control, while flat organizations have fewer levels of hierarchy and a wider span of control. The other building blocks (centralization, formalization, departmentalization, and labor specialization) do not necessarily distinguish between tall and flat organizations.
