o Matrix Structure: Managers group people by both function
and project (or product) teams simultaneously.
It results in complex network of reporting relationships.
o Disadvantages:
• Each employee has two bosses which can cause problems
• Functional manager gives different directions than project
(product) manager and employee can not satisfy both.
