tell me what they are?

Functional structure-
Divisional Structure
Matrix Structure

Functional structure-

This type of organization structure is formed by grouping together all


activities into functional department and putting each department under one head.
Functional structure leads to specialization.

For example –A steel manufacturing Company .has divided its structure into
Manufacturing,
Finance, Marketing Personnel, Research and Development, as it has diversified
activities
and its operation require a high degree of specialization.

Divisional structure typically is used in larger companies that operate


in a wide geographic area or that have separate smaller organizations
within the umbrella group to cover different types of products or
market areas. For example, Samsung has multiproduct based division
Each Product division has its own
Manufacturing, Research and Development, Marketing, Finance departments.
In a matrix structure, individuals work across teams and projects as well as
within their own department or function.

For example, a project or task team established to develop a new product might
include engineers and design specialists as well as those with marketing, financial,
personnel and production skills.

Note :These teams can be temporary or permanent depending on the tasks they are
asked to complete. Each team member can find himself/herself with two managers -
their normal functional manager as well as the team leader of the project.

as to accomplish the long-term goals of the organization. It converts the opted
strategy into the moves and actions of the organisation to achieve the
