1. Discuss (1) advantages and (1) disadvantages of a simple organizational structure.

This structure is primarily found in the IT and high-tech sectors. In a horizontal structure,
employees are grouped by function into three areas – planning, building and running. For
example, the planning department is responsible for developing new projects and may
include employees from research, development and finance. The building department
would then construct or assemble the projects; and the running department would include
sales, marketing and maintenance. This structure allows the company to respond quickly
to changing market conditions and technological advances but may not work as well for
companies that produce products with a longer lifespan, or for service industries.
