Management Structures Departmentalization is conducted in six different ways or in relation to six different set of circumstances that have been departmentalized categorically. I process, in these six different ways to departmentalize, each has its very own unique way of precisely targeting the necessary criteria which could be by program, by function, by market, by consumer/client, or by geographical area. In order to be successful with each type of departmentalization, the board must effectively and precisely pinpoint its general area of need and what it will take to be successful in terms of assistance in these particular areas. Matrix organizations are kinds of structures that a categorized flexible and responsive and are characterized by employees having more than one supervisor and in order for them to perform at their highest level of productivity, they must have some area of expertise that is disciplined. The project team happens to become a creation of several highly imaginatively intelligent groups of people that are formed to collaborate with each other and strive at creating more diverse ideas, or putting a different take on some of the many already formed ideas and the opinions of those more diverse ideas. The collegial model works flawlessly when each member is able to be independent, but equally share management responsibilities or work out a specific rotation that meets each individuals peer or colleagues needs. The need or want for freedom or independence in the aforementioned paragraph has little merit when they must come together to satisfy matters that affect the entire group.
