Organizational structure can inhibit or foster creativity and innovation. The problem with organizational structure though, is that it is resultant of many factors, including history, organic growth, strategy, operational design, product diversity, logistics, marketing, client base, supplier base and so forth. Therefore, what managers need, are not recipes for complete structural change, but insights into the properties of fostering structures that can be adapted into the existing structure.
To start, it is useful to analyse the preferred structures against the not so preferred.
The core of any organization is in its personnel and the success depends on the people staffing the organization. The goal of a company is to increase profitability, increase growth, and innovation, and introduce new values and culture into the organization. In order for to remain competitive, the need to have "maximum quality, minimum cost, and maintain peak performance. The staff operates by a "hard-skills" ethic; they deal with the technical and functional aspects of the job but not the social. "Soft skills" work synergistically with the hard skills. The soft skills like team work, communication, problem solving, and leadership together with the hard skills of computer knowledge, filing, and financial analysis make for a well-rounded employee (Thompson, 2007). When workers and managers operate as if they own the company and their jobs, they will assume responsibility for the results they agree to create and be accountable for the results they deliver.
