Workers within the function become much more knowledgeable about the function because they work amongst many different products performing the same task in each. Grouping according to product would allow the teams to become experts in the product that they are working on, allowing them to make smarter decisions based on the context of the specific product. In this situation however, I feel that grouping according to function would be smarter for production. The matrix organization around countries and products seems to be the smartest move for the company. Organizing the company’s organization around the products limits the contextual ability for

(n.d.) The functional organizational takes in to consideration the implementation and coordination of the various structures to give one functional area a dominant role to make the project a success, even though it will be managed by the existing hierarchy. The top management of the parent company only records the project as working agenda.
