ABSTRACT
One of the most fundamental challenges that all organizations confront early in their life cycle is the creation and subsequent enhancement of a sustainable structure. The correct organizational structure is absolutely imperative for strategy formulation and implementation. An organization’s structure determines a place for each position and department, and provides the integration necessary for the organization to function. Managers who develop these organizational structures face numerous alternatives and obstacles in designing a framework that best suits their specific corporate needs. To continuously improve organizational performance and effectively serve its stakeholders, an organization’s structure must be constantly evaluated and updated. To this end, a well-designed structure contributes positively to the attainment of an organization’s goals and objectives, and facilitates a high level of operational effectiveness.
