    Dear Tutor I am having problem with another question from kaplan. Can you help me please

    A matrix structure aims to combine the advantages of which of the following structures?

    A. Functional and divisional
    B. Entrepreneurial and functional
    C. Product/division/department and geographical

    D. Functional and geographical

    The answer is A. But I’m hesitating with the answer C because I read on the BPP workbook that a matrix organisation crosses a functional with a product/customer/ project structure.

    Thanks in advance

    Matrix structures are 2-dimensional, so C implies 4 dimensions.

    A is correct. In one direction you report to your functional boss eg the IT manager; in the other direction you report to a divisional or project manager.
