JJared3y ago
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.
