But in divisional structure, the functions of the organization are combinedinto a single division. The division is carried out on the basis of department or geography. Theyare all formed for achieving the same objective of the organization. The advantage of thisstructure is that if any of the division failed to work properly then it will not impact on the otherdivision. It is beneficial for the organizations who are serving many products. The disadvantageis that it can reduce the efficiency because the members in the division specialize in differentfield which can create problem in the functioning (Larson and Gray, 2011). Matrix- This structure is basically the combination of the functional and the divisionalstructure. In the initial stage the firm is divided according to the functions and later on division isdone on the basis of product, geography. The advantage of this structure is that it supports thedemocratic leadership style which builds motivation among the employees. Disadvantage is thatthe employee can be confused because there is more than one superior that the employee has toreport (Alcadipani, Khan, Gantman and Nkomo, 2012).Charles can use functional structure in their organization as it is comfortable and even itis best for the small scale business.
