From the Paper
"In January 2003, Deutsche Post World Net (DPWN) announced the merger of the former DHL Worldwide Express, Danzas and Deutsche Post Euro Express, thereby allowing the newly formed company to combine worldwide coverage with an in depth understanding of local markets. Today, DHL is the world's largest express cargo business and customized logistics solutions provider, as well as being the world's leading air freight and ocean freight provider, with expertise in the development of customized industry-specific logistics solutions, global project forwarding, warehousing and distribution (DHL Continues Its Support, 2003 p. 23). According to the company's literature, DHL's current global status, though, tends to belie its very humble origins: "It all started in San Francisco with a $3,000 investment. The year was 1969. Now some 35 years and billions of deliveries later, we're an $18.6 billion company" (Welcome to DHL, 2005). Today, DHL is the world's largest international express carrier, and generates a lion's share (about 40 percent) of the global supply for such services (Kostecki, 2000). "

From the Paper
"Financially, DHL appears to be performing well. DHL is a subsidiary of Deutsche Post, and leads the world in express delivery around the globe (Yahoo! Finance, 2004). It is ahead of FedEx and UPS and provides not only freight forwarding services but logistics as well (Yahoo! Finance, 2004). Airborne Express was acquired in 2003 so that DHL would have a ground unit, and this only made the company larger and more powerful when it comes to deliveries around the world (Yahoo! Finance, 2004). In 2003, DHL had 160, 754 employees, which was a 1-year growth of 5.60 percent (Yahoo! Finance, 2004). Revenue for the 2003 fiscal year was 27570.50 million, which indicated a growth rate of almost 30 percent (Yahoo! Finance, 2004)."

Abstract
The paper discusses how organizational design must be an important feature of a company. The paper shows how in DHL, the basic commitment of the organization is to provide the fastest and most reliable door delivery service and therefore the company has invested large amounts of money in the better organizational design of the company.

The paper considers that perhaps its organizational design has contributed to this stupendous success.
From the Paper
"It can be stated that the manner in which an organization needs to be run must match the work that needs to be carried out within the organization, and for this purpose, one would have to define certain important aspects, at the very outset: what is the mission of the organization, what are the core work processes that need to be done to fulfill the mission, what is the basic structural process of the organization, and how must and how can it be controlled? Today, most organizations are changing their organizational structure and design from tall to flat, that is, in other words, more and more CEOs are desirous of better contact with the financial service teams of the organization."
