Slide 13.5
Structural types
• Structures give people formally defined roles,
responsibilities and lines of reporting. The structure is like
the skeleton of an organisation and creates its basic
framework
• There are many structural types (e.g.
• functional, divisional, matrix, transnational and
project).
• Each structural type has its own strengths and
weaknesses and responds differently to the
challenges of control, change, knowledge and
internationalisation.
