Strengths and Weaknesses of Functional Organization Structure
STRENGTHS: Allows economies of
scale within functional departments
Enables in-depth knowledge and skill development
Enables organization to accomplish functional goals
Is best with only one or a few products
WEAKNESSES: Slow response time to
environmental changes May cause decisions to
pile on top, hierarchy overload
Leads to poor horizontal coordination among departments
Results in less innovation Involves restricted view
of organizational goalsSource: Adapted from Robert Duncan, “What Is the Right Organization Structure? Decision Tree Analysis Provides the Answer,” Organizational Dynamics (Winter 1979): 429.
Thomson Learning© 2004 1-35
Strengths and Weaknesses of Divisional Organization Structure
STRENGTHS: Suited to fast change in
unstable environment Leads to client satisfaction
because product responsibility and contact points are clear
Involves high coordination across functions
Allows units to adapt to differences in products, regions, clients
Best in large organizations with several products
Decentralizes decision-making
WEAKNESSES: Eliminates economies
of scale in functional departments
Leads to poor coordination across product lines
Eliminates in-depth competence and technical specialization
Makes integration and standardization across product lines difficult
Source: Adapted from Robert Duncan, “What Is theRight Organization Structure? Decision Tree AnalysisProvides the Answer,” Organizational Dynamics(Winter 1979): 431.

Dual-Authority Structure in a Matrix Organization
Thomson Learning© 2004 1-41
STRENGTHS: Achieves coordination
necessary to meet dual demands from customers
Flexible sharing of human resources across products
Suited to complex decisions and frequent changes in unstable environment
Provides opportunity for both functional and product skill development
Best in medium-sized organizations with multiple products
WEAKNESSES: Causes participants to experience
dual authority, which can be frustrating and confusing
Means participants need good interpersonal skills and extensive training
Is time consuming; involves frequent meetings and conflict resolution sessions
Will not work unless participants understand it and adopt collegial rather than vertical-type relationships
Requires great effort to maintain power balance

Thomson Learning© 2004 1-44
Strengths and Weaknesses of Horizontal Structure
STRENGTHS: Flexibility and rapid response to
changes in customer needs Directs the attention of everyone
toward the production and delivery of value to the customer
Each employee has a broader view of organizational goals
Promotes a focus on teamwork and collaboration—common commitment to meeting objectives
Improves quality of life for employees by offering them the opportunity to share responsibility, make decisions, and be accountable for outcomes
WEAKNESSES: Determining core processes to
organize around is difficult and time-consuming
Requires changes in culture, job design, management philosophy, and information and reward systems
Traditional managers may balk when they have to give up power and authority
Requires significant training of employees to work effectively in a horizontal team environment
Can limit in-depth skill development

Organization Forms Mechanistic: Organic:
Tasks are broken down into specialized, separate parts.
Tasks are rigidly defined. There is a strict hierarchy
of authority and control, and there are many rules.
Knowledge and control of tasks are centralized at the top of the organization.
Communication is vertical.
Employees contribute to the common task of the department.
Tasks are adjusted and redefined through teamwork.
There is less hierarchy of authority and control, and there are few rules.
Knowledge and control of tasks are located anywhere in the organization.
Communication is horizontal.

Transnational Model of Organizations
Assets and resources are dispersed worldwide into highly specialized operations that are linked together through interdependent relationships.
Structures are flexible and ever-changing. Subsidiary managers initiate strategies and
innovations that become strategy for the corporation as a whole.
Unification and coordination are achieved primarily through corporate culture, shared visions and values, and management style rather than through formal structures and systems
