● read the article below about changes in the organization of company.
● answer questions6-10
● mark one letter (a ,b or c) on your answer sheet.
managing changes at masco
fifteen years ago masco, then a small family firm, suddenly began to grow fast. as it grew, the management realized that changes were needed. however, they still wanted to keep the advantages of a small family firm.
originally, all company staff belonged to either the production or the administration department. however, as the firm grew, it became clear that the administration department was therefore replaced by separate departments: accounts, purchasing, despatch and sales. sales was then further reorganized as sales and customer service. customer service now employs more people than any other department in the company.
most heads of new departments were appointed from inside the company. in the case of production, masco recruited someone with experience of working in a much larger firm, who would be able to understand the demands of a fast-growing business. accounts was the only other department to employ new staff at senior level. two very experienced people from large companies were recruited to work closely with the existing head of the department.
senior staff were worried that their work would increase following the changes. in fact, it decreased, because several processes became quicker and easier when staff were given the power to make decisions themselves. on the other hand, some staff were disappointed that promotion did not lead to higher salaries.
don bradford, masco’s managing director says, “we’ve very pleased with the staff’s response to the changes. we thought it would take at least two years to solve all our problems but after only one year we can already see positive results. it’ll probably be another six months, though, before we feel fully confident. we’ve had a few problems with departments not keeping in close enough contact with each other. on the whole, we’re quite satisfied. although overheads have increased slightly, the sales department has brought in a lot of new
business and productivity’s up considerably. the future looks good!
6.masco made changes at management level because it
____________ .
a. bought a small family firm .
b.had more business to deal with
c. was not growing fast enough.
7.the benefits of the management changes were felt after
_______________.
a. six months
b. twelve months
c. two years.
8the changes have led to a ____________________ .
a. lack of communication between departments.
b. large rise in administrative costs.
c. fall in class
9.___________ department has the largest number of staff.
a. production
b. customer service
c. administration
10.which department disappeared in the reorganization of the company ?
a. accounts
b. sales
c. administration

task 3
read this part of an annual report, written by the managing director of a toy company called bambinos, and answer questions 11-15 . for questions 11-15, choose the correct answer. for each question, mark one letter a,b or c on your answer sheet.
1996 began well for bambinos, with the purchase in january of national toy shops ltd for￡2.3 million. all departments avoided job losses, except sales, where both companies had
previously had agents serving the same areas. in the production department, eighty temporary workers were taken on in february to work on a contract with a new client in japan. these jobs will probably disappear by the beginning of the summer, though staffing levels may rise again soon afterwards when we launch the new robot toy, roboman.
the export order to japan has been a major success, but it cannot hide the problems we have had in this area. despite the huge amounts we have invested in designing world-leading toys and in the distribution of our products, i am disappointed to see we are losing customers to rival firms, especially in asia.
we do not seem able to offer the same quality of service as our rivals. i want to see a system for improving the way we deal
with calls from customers wanting information of help,
checking on details of products, or making complaints. i would like to see major improvements in this area as soon as possible.
there are many achievements to be proud of. the increase in annual profits in 1996 was partly the result of mr. beck’s new system of producing and following up on invoices for
company accounts. but i am particularly pleased to see the 50% growth in the number of staff who are now able to use computers for major parts of their work. this is a great result
for the small amount of money invested last year in staff training. we have now advertised for a new training manager
and will be increasing the amount spent in this area to over 3% of annual profits. this will provide a variety of courses for staff
in all departments.
finally. i would like to mention roboman. many of our future plans depend on the success of this project, which will go into production in february. in 1993 our engineers in the research and development department had already succeeded in producing one of the world’s smallest radio-controlled robots, so efficient that the batteries do not need to be changed for at least 25 hours of use. what makes this new one particularly exciting is that it is controlled simply by the user giving it spoken instructions. it is this, rather than sales techniques or pricing policy, that will make roboman the best-selling toy for the next five years.
11.extra staff were employed for
a. a new order from overseas.
b. an increase in dmand over the summer.
c.the development of a new toy.
12. the company has improved
a. its advertising methods.
b. the computer skills of its staff.
c. communication between departments.
13 the most important development in the new roboman is
that
a. it doesn’t need batteries
b. it is very small.
c. it responds to speech.
14. the only department to reduce its staff was …….
a. sales
b.production
c. customer services
15. the company intends to invest more money in……..
a. research and development
b. staff training
c. distribution answers : abcab
