Question:
Sustainable Solutions manufactures three product lines: food containers, outdoor furniture and stationery. Reporting to the CEO are 10 senior managers. Three of the 10 senior managers have responsibility for a product line. Each will assemble and manage teams composed of workers from the Design, Production, Sales and Financial Services departments when a new product is required. This happens often as all three product lines are expanding. This means that at any one time a worker can be reporting to at least two bosses - a team leader and their department manager. This suggests the company's structure is likely to be:
a.none are these choices are correct
b.a functional structure
c.a mechanistic structure
d.a matrix structure
e.an organic structure
