Lattice Model
A lattice organization uses a lattice model that consists of three lattice ways: careers that can be organized to suit the needs of individual workers; flexible work scheduling that allows workers to achieve a work-life balance by taking on more or less responsibility; and full participation – providing ways for workers to contribute ideas and suggestions in every area of the company.

Benefits
A lattice organizational structure allows corporations to become more flexible and to adapt more quickly to changing market conditions. Lattice organizations are also able to take better advantage of their talent pool. By giving workers more responsibility, and the opportunity to change their work patterns to balance their work and home life, lattice companies have better worker retention and greater productivity.
