Discussion:
To successfully implement a company's business model, structure, control, and culture must be combined in ways that increase the relationships among all functions and build distinctive competencies.
Describe one problem that could arise in each of the three phases of organizational design strategy implementation and describe its impact on the business.
Without functional structure, what problems would arise regarding building competencies? How would you address these problems?
Would you rather implement structure in a single industry or across countries? Explain.
