Strategy and Structure
Organizational structure is not an end in itself—it is a means for enabling strategy, communication, and decision-making. When strategy shifts, structure must be reviewed to ensure people, resources, and authority are aligned for execution. This paper explores how structure follows strategy, with particular attention to matrix organizational design. It examines the benefits, trade-offs, and people-management realities of matrix approaches, emphasizing that structure alone solves nothing. Success depends on how leaders clarify accountability, enable communication, and support collaboration across complexity.
