Edwin should reconstruct SMCP with the effort to address the following issues. In executing this plan, he needs to deal with the conservative executive board members who want to retain the organizations identity and character. Lack of commitment among members Members were not committed to the development of the SMCP as a whole. They had different motives for being in the organization.

Some were interested in honing their skills and learning more about the said hobby; others were there “just to have fun” (which was the objective of club), to kill time and to enjoy the “barkadahan”. Members come from all walks of life – with different professions and age which can account to the diversity of the organization. Unorganised organizational chart The five founders of the firm, four of which formed the executive board and the other one acted as the president.

The irregularity of the web administrator and chapter contact, both of which are appointed and will serve SMCP for a term of one year add to the inconsistency of the organization. Accountability and reliability of officers elected The president is the principal decision maker who sets policies and directs the strategic planning. In the day to day activity of the firm however, the president can be swayed by other members of the board and to some extent be passive in terms of decision making. Absence of policies, rules, and regulations. There was an absence of firm policies regarding the (1) recruitment and application process – there was no membership process, merely signing up and submitting forms, (2) disciplinary measures, (3) committees that will handle the development of the members – It was only through personal relationship and informal authority that members can be encouraged towards the attainment of the organizations goals and (4) procedures for removing members, (5) duties of the members – no delegation of specific tasks II.
