Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research suggests that restructuring has a small negative effect on task performance, likely because changes in specialization, centralization, or formalization may lead to confusion about how exactly employees are supposed to do their jobs, which hinders learning and decision making. Restructuring has a more significant negative effect on organizational commitment, however. Restructuring efforts can increase stress and jeopardize employees' trust in the organization.
