This document discusses 5 basic types of organizational structures: functional, divisional, matrix, line and staff, and project. The functional structure groups employees by their specialized function. The divisional structure groups employees responsible for a particular product or market. The matrix structure combines functional and divisional structures with dual reporting relationships. The line and staff structure combines a centralized approval structure with specialized support staff departments. Finally, the project structure organizes employees into teams dedicated to completing specific projects.
