This book describes the use of matrix structures in large, complex
organizations such as MNCs. Using an information-processing
perspective of organization design, it develops a more
comprehensive theory for fitting the structural configurations of
matrix structures to key characteristics of firm strategy.
Empirical research by the authors supports this theoretical
framework. In addition to structural configuration, Understanding
Matrix Structures identifies and develops the mode of decision
making within a matrix as an important second dimension of matrix
structure design. It can be either balanced (joint) decision making
by the two dimensions of a matrix or rule-based decision making,
where rules pre-assign certain decisions to one dimension or the
other for unitary decision making. Recent exploratory research by
the authors supports this conceptual framework and provides the
potential to create a more flexible matrix structure- one that
facilitates a more ambidextrous organization.
