Organization Structures

Typically an organization could have following types,

1. Functional Organization

• • Functional Manager has all the authority.
  • Functional Manager is also called Line Manager.
  • Hierarchical Organization where each employee has one clear supervisor, staff are grouped by areas of specialization, managed by a person with expertise in that area

2. Projectized Organization > Project Manager has all the authority

3. Matrix Organization

• • Weak > Functional Manager gets authority
  • Balanced > Functional Manager & Project Manager – both are equal
  • Strong > Project Manager gets authority
