1. Line Organization a. This type of structure is found in almost all but the very smallest police agencies. Channels of responsibility and authority are thus left intact, since the specialist's responsibility is to "think and provide expertise" for the line units, which are then responsible for "doing."
2. Functional Organization b. This type of structure is rarely found in present-day organizations except near the top level. It divides the responsibility and authority among specialists. The manager's responsibility in this type of organization is limited to the particular activity over which he has control regardless of who performs the function.
3. Line and Staff Organization c. This is often called individual, military, or departmental type. It is the simplest and perhaps the oldest form and is seldom encountered in its true form, except in the smallest of organizations. It involves a division of the work into units with a person in charge who has complete control and who can be held directly accountable for results, or lack of them.
