gives a larger business enterprise the ability to segregate large sections of the company's business into semi-autonomous groups. These groups are mostly self-managed and focused upon a narrow aspect of the company's products or services. As with any organization structure, divisions have both strengths and weaknesses.
3. Divisional Structure
A divisional structure is made up of separate, semi-autonomous units or divisions. Within one corporation there may be many different divisions and each division has its own goals to accomplish. A manager oversees their division and is completely responsible for the success or failure of the division. This gets managers to focus more on results knowing that they will be held accountable for them.
