Departments: Different departments within a bureaucracy are like separate floors in the department store. Each department specializes in certain types of products or services.
Divisions: Divisions within a bureaucracy can be compared to different aisles within each department. Each division handles specific subsets of tasks related to the overall function of the department.
Units: Units within branches are similar to individual shelves within each aisle. They represent smaller units of work or specialization that contribute to the larger function of the division and ultimately, the branch.
