Describe matrix structure.
Matrix structure is a type of organizational structure that combines elements of both functional and divisional structures. It is characterized by a dual reporting structure, in which employees have both a functional manager and a project manager.
In a matrix structure, employees are grouped into cross-functional teams based on specific projects or products. Each team is usually made up of individuals from different functional areas, such as engineering, marketing, and finance, and is led by a project manager who is responsible for ensuring that the project is completed on time, within
budget, and to the desired level of quality. It is considered a complex organizational structure and requires strong leadership and coordination skills to ensure that the different teams and managers are working together effectively.
