  17. When to Restructure • Is the marketing structure capable of implementing the plans? • Does the marketing focus the organization on priority markets or products? • Are managers suitably empowered? • Does the firm meet its sales and profit objectives? • Is the organization responding to customer needs or competitive actions? • Does the marketing department produce creative business strategies and plans?

  21. Summary • There are many types of organization structure. • The trade-off is usually simplicity vs. concentration on the right segment. • Most organization structures grow incrementally rather than being designed from the start. • Globalization adds another layer of complexity. • Centralization or decentralization is a major issue in global firms. • Effectiveness of organizations is based upon internal and external factors. • The best organization structures include: simplicity, easy exchange of information, putting best people closer to customers. • Changing the structure may not be as effective as moving staff into appropriate places.
