Answer 1
Johnson & Johnson like other renowned multinational organizations, had established a
functional type of structure during its initial operations. The structure at J&J constitutes around
180 distinctive operating segments which involves McNeil Consumer Products, Ortho
Pharmaceuticals along with J&J Consumer Product (Johnson & Johnson, 2018). The company
further introduced products like Johnson & Johnson Baby Shampoo and adhesives whereby each
unit has been organized independently and the whole business operation has been regulated by
the Johnson & Johnson Family Headquarters (Johnson & Johnson, 2018). However, such a
decentralized structural formation of the company facilitates its employee base to develop them
within the organization and further aids the employees to generate innovated ideas to effectively
introduce various products and technologies in order to accomplish the customer needs and
demands (JnJ.Com, 2018).
Answer 2
Johnson & Johnson with a global structure has been effectively developing strategies by
introducing iconic brands from OTC to several other beauty brands and further to establish
international scale into the operating model and competence (Athey et al., 2013). The balancing
approach which the company has been implementing aims to sell brands locally and further to
regulate the global scale in order to effectively drive the power of improvement and innovation
as well as the power of equity to establish an improved competence level (JnJ.Com, 2018).
