Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Matrix structures group activities vertically by function (such as marketing or finance) and horizontally by product or project. This allows for greater flexibility and cross-functional collaboration. They do not necessarily have many hierarchical levels, nor are they specific to companies with low-skilled workers. They may not be the best choice for a firm pursuing a low-cost strategy, as they can be more complex and potentially costly to implement.
