Identify and discuss some of the more significant tradeoffs


Learning Activity #1 Executives must select among the four types of organization design structures (Simple, Functional, Multidivisional, and Matrix) available to organize operations. Each structure has unique advantages and disadvantages, and the selection of structures involves a series of trade-offs. In this discussion: a) Please identify and discuss some of the more significant tradeoffs that a company faces with each of these various organization designs. Please be specific. (Please discuss in "list form" rather than a bulk paragraph). b) Identify a business scenario where a specific structure you select might be a good fit. Also discuss why this scenario is a good fit? Learning Activity #2 In addition to organization design, there are several other factors that can cause a good strategy to fail: management, operations, marketing, finance, R&D and MIS issues. Review your response to Learning Activity #1 and determine which ONE of these additional factors could cause that specific strategy to fail. Clearly identify the factor, explain why it could cause the strategy to fail – fully support your response.
