For this question, we will analyze organizational structures (Chapter 9) along with corporate

strategies (Chapter 8). Explain how the functional structure differs from the multidivisional

structure. A basic guideline for designing an organization is that structure follows strategy

which means that the companys strategy should be selected first and then, a structure is

designed to match the strategy. Explain how a functional structure would be effective for

concentration strategies (i.e., concentrated businesses built on economies of scale) and

how multidivisional structures become more useful as the corporation becomes more

diversified.
